How long is an NAS good for?
By that, I mean, how long might a reasonable person expect between upgrades? I have a ReadyNAS NV+, now 5 years old. Works fine, except that it's pretty slow on transfers. Normally that's not a pro...
5 years is a good run. At some point I'd suggest shifting the NV+ to backup duties (to extend its useful life) and using a new primary NAS.
If it still works and you keep up to date backups there is no need to rush into getting a new NAS though
