Mountain Lion Compatibility
Is there any early word on Mountain Lion compatibility for the ReadyNAS models?

- asdsaAspirantCan you guys try removing any spaces from the share names of the drive you are trying to access within ML, as I had a similar issue sharing and AFP share from my router (not readynas) to my ML MBP, and it was fixed by removing spaces.
Asdsa - alistair_nelsonAspirantLook forward to an official word on this. As I aren't upgrading till I know my time machine backups have a good chance of working !
- matteburyAspirantI too have an NV+ (silver) and am waiting to hear if this has been resolved before upgrading to 10.8.
- redpolaAspirantWell, I've seen the "cannot connect" problem, (in the linked thread) and my solution, which seems to absolutely fix that problem is:
Under "Services" and "Standard File Protocols", look for the AFP section (which should be checked) and check "Advertise AFP service over Bonjour".
This allows all my Mountain Lion machines to back up to my Time Machine volume (a ReadyNAS Ultra 6).
Data speeds seem ok for me.
Neil. - jonsengeAspirantFor the NAS novice like myself, these experiences are pretty varied. What would some of the pro users recommend for someone like myself? Will my NV+ v1 (RAIDiator 4.1.9) mount in Mountain Lion, and will Time Machine function properly over WiFi? Or will an updated RAIDiator be required for full functionality?
- alb1AspirantAlso having a similar problem here using Mountan Lion and trying to connect to the ReadyNas NV+ over afp (just updated the RAIDiator to 4.1.9 too). It eventually connects but takes about 5 minutes and then it's unusable as it just hangs. Worked fine in Lion though. Can't even connect to other users connected via the ReadyNAS over Ethernet. All other computers working fine though. Any help, greatly appreciated.
- jonsengeAspirantI setup a USB disk running 10.8 to test my configuration on (NV+ v1, RAIDiator 4.1.9, AFP, WiFi), and overall pretty good results. Initial connection is a little slower than it is on Lion, maybe 10 seconds vs. just a 1-3. Transfer and write speeds seem pretty normal. I setup and completed a full initial Time Machine backup of my USB Mountain Lion volume. All seemed pretty normal and it behaved as expected.
It seems like others are having other experiences, but this was my result in the above setup. I'm holding out on upgrading my primary volume to 10.8 until a few more bugs are squashed out, just to be safe. I can say that the ML interface is gorgeous. Lion sharpened even further. I'm looking forward to using it. - mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredIf you haven't already you may wish to open support cases at my.netgear.com.

you connect.. it sees the shares, asks you to select which shares you want to mount, then the connecting to 5.x.x.x. dialog continues forever. The NAS shows up in Finder but non of the shares do and the connecting dialog still shows :( :oops: :oops: - matthewdflemingAspirant
