Anyone got 6.2 on their legacy RN yet?

We're getting to replace them all and no one said anything about NG but instead they're looking at Synology and QNAP.

I know next to nothing about the corporate environment and we couldn't be much more off topic... but I think this goes back a couple of generations. They were dormant far too long and let others bring to the table an interface (and or features) that surpassed them. And corporate wise it's not something that changes overnight... it took a relatively long time to become the prevailing view and it would take time to change regardless of it being valid or not for any specific generation.

I see the same thing on the consumer side. As an example at AVSForum mention NAS and a certain vendor's name is used almost in the way TiVo is. It virtually defines the category. It doesn't matter that on the low end models ReadyNAS (pretty much) out performs them and costs significantly less or the fact what makes it so much better than ReadyNAS are features you'll never use on models that you'll never purchase.

To a large degree it comes down to preconception. Certainly not in all cases but it creates a trend and one that's hard to buck.
