Readynas Pro 4 memory upgrade

Hello,

 

Sorry for my english, it's not my native language.

 

I plan tu upgrade my Readynas pro 4 from 1gb to 4gb.  It's a stupid question, but where is the memory slot ? I change the fan few months ago and, while I was not searching for it, I don't remember seeing it when the nas was open...

 

Thx you !

 

Florian.

  • I forget to take picture, but the ram slot is on the top.

     

    So I put 4gb instead of 1 (G skill F2-6400CL6S-4GBSQ), and it's working great, not issue running memtest, etc.

    This picture is for something else, but it does show the memory slot.  BTW, Patriot PSD28G800K works well in my Pro-6.

     

    Keep the original memory - Netgear might deny support.  It's a good idea to run the memory diagnostic for a while after the upgrade.

      Yes I intend to keep the original one :)

       

      This picture is a Pro6 no ?

        The picture was from a service action on the pro (didn't specify pro-6).  But it could be a pro-6.  I'm not seeing many other pictures (and I don't own a 4).

  • I'll take some pictures when I'll do the upgrade, next week-end I hope, so it could help Pro 4 owners.
