ReadyNAS replacement chassis compatibility question
I have a ReadyNAS RND 4000. The chassis died but the drives are still good. I was told that the file system on that unit isn't compatible with newer ReadyNAS products, so my only recourse to acces...
It's not the PSU. That was a problem, and Netgear replaced it, but within about a week or so, the main logic board went. Or at least that's what the "expert" concluded it was.
Are there any differences between NV+ variants that I'lll need to beware of, or will anything NV+ solve my problem?
Any v1 NAS will work. There's not a lot of difference between the NV+ models (at least I've never seen anything documented on that). There's an older NV which will work, but would be slower.
Since you are purchasing used, you should verify the NAS using a scratch disk first - making sure it is functional, and that the firmware is the same as your old NV+ (or newer).
