    There are posts on the forum re running VirtualBox on ReadyNAS OS 6.

    You can run VMs on either, however note that the 316 does not have VT-x support (so it can't run 64-bit VMs) and only has 2GB RAM.

    You should consider the 516 or 716 for what you want. Both of these have CPUs which support VT-x.
