Still no Thunderbolt?
Well CES 2014 is over, but to my knowledge there is no Netgear NAS announcement, and especially no Thunderbolt connected ReadyNAS. I guess, I will have to ditch my ReadyNAS PRO 6 for a Promise Pega...
You can buy 10G NIC cards for PCs, though they are expensive. OF course the 716 is expensive too...
Though when the 716 has a 10G connection to the switch, in a multiple-user environment the users will see better performance (even though each is limited to 1 gig). This is similar to the NIC bonding in the Pro, though of course it is faster.
I don't know much about the SAN market, so I have no opinion on whether Netgear could compete there. Though it would be nice if the ReadyNAS had a SAN interface (enabling much faster access for one PC, while still allowing full ethernet access).
