RND4000v.2 cannot use it
I have bought a little-used RND4000 with leads and fitted a 4TB Disk. I've downloaded RAIDiator-arm-5.3.13 and unzipped it but cannot activate it as there is no .exe file. I can see the NAS on the router control panel but just have no idea how to see it on my PC. Any help would be welcome.

First let's confirm the model that you purchased.
The original NV+ (called a v1 here)
- runs 4.1.x firmware
- says NV+ on the front panel
- has other labels that may say v2 or v3
The NV+ v2
- runs 5.3.x firmware
- says NV+ v2 on the front panel
The original NV+ can't run 5.3.13, and is also limited to <= 2 TB disks. So it is very important to confirm what you have.
You might also try RAIDar: https://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads#raidar It should find your NAS and give you the model information and what firmware it is running.
Hi Stephen, thanks for the reply. The machine is NV+ V2 with space for 4 disks, one of which is filled.

https://nas-ip-address/admin will bring you to the NAS admin web ui (using the real IP Address of the NAS of course).
You will need to click through a security warning. Use admin for the username and password for the password. Once in, you can upgrade the firmware (uploading it from your PC to the NAS).
The manuals for your NAS are here:
