Is newer going to be better?
Last year, I posted here asking about the “new” ReadyNAS boxes. Several reviews I’d read echoed complaints about their OS. I have not yet purchased a replacement for my now 5-year-old ReadyNAS Pro ...
We've made a lot of progress since OS6 was first released last year. Our latest release 6.2.0 has some performance improvements.
I would consider the 516 the unit to upgrade to from a Pro Business Edition.
The 314 would be the unit to upgrade from a Pro 4 to get comparable performance.
Having said that for many tasks the gigabit ethernet connection may be the bottleneck.
How do you use your Pro BE? Do you use Teaming? Do you run add-ons? If so, which ones?
I see you've upgraded the RAM in the Pro BE. Have you changed anything else? If you have replaced the CPU with a faster one that would make it even more clear that the 516 or the 716x would be the way to go.
