Wow now that is a nice interface
Readynas is OK! The only thing that lacks is a really cool and nowadays interface. the new 3.0 interface of synology nases blows me away. I just like i am in windows. http://www.synology.com/...
I will agree that the UI is not fancy and has some issues but I do not find that it is bad enough to switch to an different product. I have never been partial to interfaces with a lot of eye candy. I far prefer a UI that is simple and the options are easy to find. I actually prefer a good command line utility to a GUI especially if the utility can be used in scripts.
I have not seen anything that would give the impression that Netgear is treating the ReadyNAS as a hobby, they are releasing new hardware models and updating the firmware, except for the legacy Sparc based units. It may not be helpful if you, like me, have one of these legacy units but that is the nature of the industry. I have a Sun Blade 1000 Workstation that has a Standard Sun video card that Solaris 11 doesn't support. Apple OS X no longer support the PowerPC architecture.
