Hi,
I have tried to update my old RND2000 v2, with new firmware and would like to run a PLEX-server. Now I have updated to firmware 4.1.16. Is it possible på upgrate to 5.x.x?
Have not been able to find a plex-version for the NAS. Anybody know where to download it?

Your 4.1.16 system is an RND2000 v1 (sparc cpu). It's not capable of running plex.
OS 5.x.x is for the v2 (arm cpu) systems, so you cannot install that.
The labeling on the back of the NAS often confuses people, but the v2 label that matters is on the front (and yours won't say v2 there).
Anyway, your only options are to run plex on a PC (you can do that, but still keep the media on the NAS), or get a new OS 6 NAS that can run the current version of plex.
