Business nas cpu specifications

I'm looking at the business nas specs, but the list only has intel core, is there a list of the specific cpus these use? I'm looking at the nvx, pro 4, and 6. Thanks.

    Would recommend avoiding buying the NVX unless you are on a tight budget and can find the NVX for considerably less than the Pro 4.

    The Pro 6 is the fastest desktop ReadyNAS by a long way and a great choice if budget permits. I particularly like the optional dual-redundancy on the 6-bay models.
  • Thanks guys, that's very helpful. I haven't decided on anything yet and won't be for a while, but want to start looking at these. One of my current drives is having errors which is also why I'm debating on what to do, but I leave the nas off for now so that's why I'm not going to rush, but I do need to do something. If the 6 has a driverless version I may look into one. It's for my room, but they are a bit priced so not sure yet. I do prefer to have all the functions even if I don't use them though.
  • Well, tight budget was right. Frys just posted the 2 terabyte hitachi on special so I just went ahead and bought one to replace one of the same model that started having problems. The errors have been adding so I just had the nas off, but just got home and swapped the drive. The old one was made last year, this one was made this year so we'll see how it goes. I can't go any higher than 2 T on this nas anyway.
    Here's todays newspaper ad...I got it for 112, which I'm still not crazy about considering they have the 3 and 4 terabytes on the shelf too. Either way hopefully this will hold me for a while longer. I need to save up anyway.

    You can buy all the desktop ReadyNAS models diskless.
