Advice requested to expand my ReadyNAS NV+ 3 TB
On 3/6/2007, I received and installed a Netgear (Infrant) ReadyNAS NV+ 3 TB. It has four 750 GB Seagate AS disks in default RAID X configuration. Today I installed the latest firmware for it, RAIDiato...
Thank you vandermerwe for the clear advice.
My NV+ (4 x 750GB X-RAID) is the backup device for my personal video files and the DVD and Blu-ray disks that I have made from them. There is nowhere to backup these files while I add new drives.
For this reason, it is probably best, I believe, not to add more space to this 'legacy' device, but to buy a new 4 bay 6TB NAS. I am considering the Netgear ReadyNAS 104, 4 Bay Network Attached Storage (4x 2TB). I could use it as a backup for the NV+ and there would still be space for new data.
Comments and suggestions for other options would be appreciated.
