Moving from SBS2003 to SBS2011 domain.
We have a client running a SBS 2003 Domain who has a ReadyNAS Pro 2 [X-RAID2] connected via LAN - Joined to domain and CIFS enabled. Relatively straight forward.
We are rolling out a new SBS 2011 server soon (with new IP range and internal domain name).
Am I right in assuming that I can use RAIDar to detect the NAS, reconfigure it's IP settings, join to new domain and assign permissions as required?
Thanks in advance for any help.

- That should work fine as the login for Frontview (web-admin interface accessible e.g. via RAIDar) is not a domain login, but a special user on the NAS itself.
Even though data would remain intact, I would still make sure to backup your data first (you should backup important data primarily stored on the ReadyNAS regularly anyway). Particularly things like home shares (if you use them).
