Hello, I am having trouble with my ReadyNAS Duo V2. I can do anything I want to from the WinXP computer that originally put the files on it, but not with other computers on my network. The ReadyN...
The Dell Precision T7400 I was using has SAS and it is turned On, but I started connecting these two via SATA. It seemed I got better results that way. Maybe Seagate's Tool did say Zero before. Anyway, it's done now.
I couldn't turn the ReadyNAS OFF in time to keep it from formatting the WD EZEX, but it worked in Bay #1 without a Green LED flash pattern. I turned the ReadyNAS Off and put it in Bay #2, and it worked there as well. I didn't run RAIDar, so it shows as Zero Capacity in Windows under Computer, but the backup and media folders are there. So both drives seem to be working now. I'll do the Quick Erase on it again (just to be sure) and follow your procedure to have both 1TB Drives installed. Then it's on to copying Data. I don't anticipate any further problems, but it's nice to know you are here if I do.
I'll come back with a follow-up to let you know how everything went. If the EZEX works well, I'll let you know so maybe it can be added to the Compatibility List. I guess the only way to know for sure is to copy the Data with both Drives installed, then remove the Seagate and see if the Data can still be accessed on the WD. Does that sound about right? Would it matter which Bay the WD is in for that?
