ReadyNas ultra 2 Firmware version
Hi,
What version of firmware should I use for my ReadyNas ultra 2?
I'm about to reinstall my Nas but I don't understand what version of firmware I should choose.
I found following versions on the NETGEAR Community
- ARM
- x86
- x86_64
Which shall I select?
Or should I use OS 6?
And when I tried to download Plex media server there where following versions to choose from
- Intel 6.x
- ARM 6.x
- ARM 6.x RN2xx
Which shall I select?

RAIDiator-x86 4.2.30 is the latest firmware for your NAS.
However if you want to run a current version of Plex Media Server (Intel 6.x) then you'd need to put OS6 onto your NAS. Doing so is not supported by NETGEAR but it can be done. The process does require a factory default (wipes all data, settings, everything) so you would need to backup your data first.Can I use any of the other versions of Plex Media Server if I not will update to OS6 ?
- ARM 6.x
- ARM 6.x RN2xx
You can use the Intel 4.x Plex Media Server app which hasn't received any updates for quite some time. Over time more and more Plex features in client apps would fail to work with that.
