Windows 7 and RAIDar
My RAIDar does not seem to work well at my Windows 7. Approximately 1-3% of the time the Netgear Readynas DUO is found by RAIDar. The rest of the time I only se a help screen. However, the fact that t...
Vidar, I can confirm RAIDar works fine on Win7. I have 3 Win7 units at home, and RAIDar runs fine on all of them.
You can download the latest version here. http://www.readynas.com/?p=1158 If you are using the latest version already, perhaps try uninstalling it, and reinstall v4.3.1 again.
You could check if Norman is interfering by temporarily disabling it, of perhaps it has an option in it somewhere to add "safe programs" or similar? I know on a clean install, Comodo (firewall) blocks it from running as a PUP, until you tell it to ignore it in future.
You definitely do not need a MAC!
As for moving/copying data to the Duo, I would FTP it across personally, either via a Frontview Backup Job, or manually with an FTP client. (FileZilla is good, and free.) I've found copying data over with Windows Explorer, especially if it's quite a large amount, to be painfully slow most of the time. Drag and drop does work, it's just slower. So you do have options. And as said, RAIDar isn't needed at all for any data transfer if you already know the Hostname or ip of the Duo.
Welcome btw!
