State of HCL for ReadyNAS NV?
I have an older (Infrant) ReadyNAS NV. It has been giving me great service for the last five years with 4x Seagate 500GB drives. I'd like to upgrade it to 4x Seagate Barracuda Green 2TB SATA ST2000D...

1. All Infrant ReadyNAS NV units would be long out of warranty by now.
2. The NV and NV+ are very similar products, particularly the Rev B NV and the NV+. What works in the NV+ will most likely work in the NV as well.
Thanks for the input. I wouldn't have gotten this far, this fast without help.
I would really appreciate an official response from Netgear that states the HCL is frozen for the NV.
Does anyone know what the validation process is like? Does it require external hardware? Is it a diagnostic load to exercise the disks? If it is the latter, then maybe we could run our own HCL qualifications.
I think I'm going to take your post to heart and order five more Seagates and try them out...
