Xpenology - ReadyNAS 628X

Hello!

 

Since the ReadyNAS is no longer supported, has anyone installed Xpenology on a 628x?  If so, are there any documented instructions or videos that you followed?  I currently also have a Synology and am familiar with the GUI and like it, so putting Xpenology on my ReadyNAS seems logical to me.  Any guidance would be appreciated.  Thanks!

  • 628x has the exact CPU as RS3618xs. It runs flawlessly. However, you need a video card to do this. Without that, you cant do anything. The Xeon processor does not come with a GPU.
