Help setting up a Virtual Machine on a ReadyNAS 516
I am wanting to run a virtual machine on my ReadyNAS 516 device running the latest firmware (6.5.1) on my domain. I am tech-savy and a fast learner, but I am new to this.
Right now I have a physical machine to allow an employee at a different office to work by remote desktoping to it, but I would like to run a virtual machine on the ReadyNAS to allow them to work off of it instead. I believe this sort of thing is possible, but I'm not quite sure how to go about doing it.
If anyone could point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it! :smileyhappy:

I haven't done it, but there is a thread here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Community-Add-ons/Virtualbox-on-OS6-NAS/td-p/902756
Note the 516 CPU supports VT-x.
