Hello,
Do you happen to know if this would be the same for the Ultra 4 Plus?

Still working? I'm thinking about doing this, but just wanted to be sure everything was still cool before proceeding.
Much thanks.

Success! Works 'as advertised'.
BIG thanks TeknoJnky for doing the initial 'leg work'.
I intended to incl a pic as proof, however I can't seem to figure out how to add one.

Re: Ultra 4 + 4 gig
Use a website e.g. imageshack.us or stashbox.org and paste the forum code they give you in a new post.
If you haven't already I would suggest running a few passes of the memory test. The memory test is one of the options on the boot menu

Re: Ultra 4 + 4 gig
Guys, have those of you who have upgraded to 4GB noticed any increase in performance?
I'mm looking to do the same and have narrowed my selection down to the following:
The prices listed above are from independant retailers as opposed to the manufacturers store price.
Also found on a certain auction site:
Any preference with regard to manufacturer?

Re: Ultra 4 + 4 gig
Hello,
I also just want to confirm that the Corsair 4GB DDR2 SODIMM Memory (VS4GSDS800D2) PC2-6400 (800Mhz) works and tested fine in a Ultra 4. 😄
Memory test run for 19 hours, then canceled;
6 complete runs and 61% in the 7th run with 0 errors found.
Conclusion;
Memory module is 99,99999999999995% (~6,61 x 85%) without errors.

Re: Ultra 4 + 4 gig
Hello
I also bought this memory for my Ultra 4 and it seems to be working good! Changing the memory was really easy. I need it because i use some addons like Transmission Bittorrent client and SABnzbd+ which seems to use and need alot of ram while downloading.
Memory: CORSAIR SO-DIMM DDR2 4GB VS PC6400 800MHZ (VS4GSDS800D2)
Model: ReadyNAS Ultra 4 [X-RAID2]
Firmware: RAIDiator 4.2.16
Memory: 4096 MB [DDR2]
I regret that i didn't buy the Ultra 4 Plus though... Any way of changing CPU?

Hmm, I just installed this memory in my Ultra 4 Plus and it shows: "Memory: 1024 MB [2.5-3-3-7]" I was planning on running the memtest but just plugged it in and it booted, so I checked the status page. Any ideas?

Re: Ultra 4 + 4 gig
Run the memtest twice through anyway. Just because it recognized the type and capacity does not mean it works just fine. You would hate to find out several months down the road that you have corrupted data.

I too am interested in an answer to this question. Does anyone see any significant performance increase by upgrading to 4GB? Anyone have before and after IOMeter or CIFS drag and drop benchmarks? Or any empirical data that shows an increase in performance with addons (ie. Bitorrent)? I would like to know what people are seeing before I risk the upgrade.

Re: Ultra 4 + 4 gig
Extra ram will help in generally a couple areas;
1) when using alot of addons, will help avoid running into swap file
2) can provide additional read/write cache memory
3) if you run vbox, it will allow you to run either more VM's or provide more ram for them
It does not increase performance, per se, it just helps smooth out performance.

Re: Ultra 4 + 4 gig
I have just received a Hypertec HVP53004GBS 4GB DDR2 memory module which is made by Hynix. Installed into my ReadyNAS Ultra 4 and it was recognised straight away and browsing through the Frontview menu seems to be less laggy now. I am running a memory test so will monitor the performance increase after that has completed.
I bought the memory last week and it cost me just over £20 including delivery from LambdaTek which was very impressive compared to the £45+ a 4GB DDR2 module was going to cost me elsewhere. Looks to be sold out now though.

Re: Ultra 4 + 4 gig
I realise this thread hasn't been used in awhile, but I want to let you know I have just successfully upgraded the memory on my australian Ultra 4+ thanks to the various posts on this thread.
I have updated using the Corsair 4GB, 200-Pin SODIMM, DDR2 PC2-6400 (800MHz) - (VS4GSDS800D2) Value Select module (about AUD$120), and after 3 passes of the memory test I had no erros.
We have 3 computers with HDTV tuners that record directly to the NAS, over a Gigabit network, using Windows Media Cente. TV is then wached at each of these machines or the Xbox, via Windows Media Centre.
The improvement in performance after the memory upgrade is marked. Everything happens a lot quicker and the streaming is a lot more reliable.
Thankyou all for being a fountain of information. 😄 😄 😄 😄

Will soon be repeating the process for mine. Initially used the 2GB version of this same module: http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/partspe ... 51264AC667
Crucial (Micron) memory has always been flawless for me in every application I've ever used it. Using Corsair performance RAM in my Desktop, but Crucial is always a top contender for me too.

Re: Ultra 4 + 4 gig
You're gonna replace your 2GB module for a 4GB one ? Isn't 2GB quite enough ? I encountered disk swap before, but since i've got 2GB, the NAS never used the swap memory.
