Feature Request - Report Installed Memory on OS6 System Tab
I might be overlooking it, however I cannot find the amount of installed memory reported anywhere in the ReadyNAS OS6 web interface.
The amount of installed memory is reported on the old RAIDiator 4.x.x Frontview web interface home page.
Unless it's already there and I am just overlooking it, please include this information in the Device Overview section of the OS6 System tab in the future. It would also be nice to see more detailed memory information shown on the Performance section of the System Tab.
Thank you and regards,

Hi TWilson,
This information is not available in the UI but can be seen in the device logs. I suggest that you contact our support team to create ticket for this feature request.
Kind regards,

NETGEAR Community TeamIt would be nice to see this, but there are a few things worth noting:
1. We don't support 3rd party memory upgrades and some of our models have RAM that is soldered on (i.e. not replaceable).
2. It is expected to see all the memory in use. We use memory for caching to improve performance and free it up when needed. If you think you don't have enough memory installed you should check to see if the memory is swapping.

I don't have any memory issues or concerns regarding 3rd party memory upgrades. I have multiple NAS units and would find it nice to able to view basic system info on each without having to run a shell command or open logs. I can live without it....
I realize I can find it in the logs and by using the free shell command.
I was just thinking that it would be a nice to have addition to the Device Info shown in the OS6 UI. It was displayed in the RAIDiator UI and for some reason was left out of the OS6 UI.
I think it would also be nice to display the Installed CPU info as well (which I know can also be found in the logs).
It's not worth the trouble to contact support to submit a feature request.
