Trying Seagate 6T in Ultra 4
I currently have a very full Ultra 4 with four 4TB drives. I have the first 6TB drive in now and it tested good, resync is at 10%. I will post again with progress when I get more of the drives in pla...
I am floundering around looking at how to do OS 6.
One would expect the following:
1) Google "ReadyNAS Ultra 4 OS 6"
2) Find the link here at http://www.readynas.com with something like "upgrade to OS 6" in the search text
3) Download RAIDIATOR 6.x.x
4) Run RAIDIATOR, check the compatability, accept what it will do to the RAID, backup if necessary
5) Install and wait a while
6) Copy the data back
Instead I am reading threads on the forum for hours trying to ensure my data will remain intact and that the new OS will actually work.
I keep getting the feeling that Netgear thinks like Microsoft that setting up their part of the computer system is more important than what I want to use it for.
In reality every minute I spend on the NAS is a minute I am not doing what I bought it for.
