Pre-Release of Windows 10 and ReadyNAS.
Has anybody setup a system with a pre-release Windows 10 and networked a ReadyNAS? I am interested as I intend to upgrade soon (not certain if I will do it on day 1 - 29/07/15), and wondered what im...
- Jun 21, 2015We are using the latest samba series 4.2 in our ReadyNAS OS 6.2.x firmware.
Beta software inherently may have bugs and some changes before release. Also a major upgrade like Windows 10 is likely to have added new SMB features which may take some time to be supported by samba if at all.
One would think it should work similarly well to how the ReadyNAS works with existing versions of Windows e.g. Windows 7 but it is possible there may be some issues for early adopters.
I would advise business users not to upgrade immediately. Some software e.g. 3rd party software will require updates to support Windows 10. Where possible test Windows 10 first on a non-production machine to hopefully avoid issues leading to serious downtime.

If it is Windows 10, then Netgear will be in big trouble on July 29.

... still waiting ...
Zero day was yesterday 29th, so 1 day and a bit later still no sign of Win 10.
I have a copy 'reserved' somewhere, but it ain't arrived yet.
I thought it had downlaoded, but ca't find it, so perhaps it is sitting on my PC and roaring to go (and install).
Oh well don't suppose it will be much longer.:)

One of my upgrades came through today. I am not seeing any issues with any of the ReadyNAS. Mapped drives to my pro-6 were preserved, SMB access to the NV+, duo, RN102 and RN202 works as expected.
Note I am using local accounts, and don't use ReadyCloud (I'm an openvpn guy...)- BaJohnAug 01, 2015Virtuoso

I do have the little 4 white squares in my tray though.
Clicking that basically tells me it's happening and WAIT.

I can see my ReadyNAS RN31442E, but can't write to it. No problems with ReadyNAS NV+.
I recall I could at one time, but no longer. I suspect windows credentials.
Often get news one added and then can't see the NAS. Very frustrating.

It's easy enough to delete the windows credentials for the NAS and then create new ones.
I haven't seen mine disappear or change after I created them.
