Ultra 6 Memory Upgrade Verification
I want to upgrade the memory on my Ultra 6s. I have two. 8GB seems a little pricey so 4B will have tp do. I've searched the forum and want to verify which memory is correct for the Ultra 6. Can someo...
Here you are. It is the ReadyNAS Ultra 6 (Not Ultra 6 Plus), the CPU is the Intel Atom D510. 2x2Gb
Not sure that previous post does answer my question.
I'd appreciated verification of what memory I need. I hate returns.
Thanks.
Stephen, thanks. So many legacy models I'm just not sure. Ditto on memory. Too many choices. If I weren't ordering online it wouldn't be a big deal for a return.
sotrack, I'd appreciate that. Thank you.
Make sure it is a ReadyNAS Ultra 6 (Not Ultra 6 Plus), The CPU in the Ultra 6 is the Intel Atom D510:

It has two DIMM (Not SODIMM) slots, supports up to maximum of 4GB (2GB each slot DDR2 667/800). Default was 1GBThe Ultra 6 (RNDU6000) and Ultra 6 Plus (RNDP600U) have very different hardware.
Hi mdgm,
It's an Ultra 6 not Ultra 6 Plus.
From Frontview:
Model: ReadyNAS Ultra 6 [X-RAID2] Serial: 2EE107R60017D Firmware: RAIDiator 4.2.27 Memory: 1024 MB [DDR2] That's one of the things that's confusing. The photos on the early Ultra user guides and the website show a picture of the NV series.
In my seraching I checked Hardware Compalibility for memory and got "Page Not Found".

Saw Stephen's posts about the Pro 6. Saw posts about the Ultra 6 Plus.
I could go on but I'll stop. :)
I'm just a tad bit confused and need some verification. Any clarification is helpful.
Thanks.
The specs I mentioned are for the Ultra 6.
sotrack's example of what he used will be helpful too.
After replacing the memory you should run at least a couple of passes of the memory test. N.B. it is possible that incompatible memory may pass the memory test.
