Firmware 6.2.5 Where is any information on Netgear?
So I login to my ReadyNAS and it notifies me that 6.2.5 is avaliable.
After all the screwups that 6.2.2 created, I thought I'd at least read the release notes before I blind update a running device.
Go to Netgear, look at news, link to firmware is for Version 6.0, In Nov of 14. FAIL.
Go to forums, nothing.....FAIL
Click on the actual link on the popup for the firmware update, it links to http://readynasIP/admin.....
FAIL.
Why is it that we continue to operate like this is all in beta, it is run like a startup, and no real information is actually published when the firmware becomes avaliable.
Why is it I am the ONLY one that askes these questions....does no one else care that their data sits on a device that is managed in this manner???

What readynas model do you have?
Are you currently on 6.2.4?
I don't see notification of a new update.
There is a beta 6.2.5 RC1 here:
https://community.netgear.com/t5/ReadyNAS-Beta-Release/ReadyNASOS-6-2-5-RC1/m-p/950451#U950451
There are release notes.
When a new update is released there will be an announcement on the forums with a link to release notes, like for 6.2.4:
