In 2020 I bought a RN426 (24TB) to replace my Ultra 6 (12TB). I am still using both. When RNXtras (https://rnxtras.com/) stopped supporting the ReadyNAS, and it lookes like Netgear has stopped also, It is no longer justified to continue with the ReasyNas equipment.
Is there any chance that a newer release of the OS will become avalaible within a couple of months?
That we will get rid of Jessie and move on to a recent version of Debian?
If not, I suppose I have to move to another solution.
It feels like a waist of time and money, since at the moment all is running well.
Is there any chance that a newer release of the OS will become available within a couple of months?
I'm guessing one or two updates, with some security updates, and perhaps a couple of clean-up things (pointing the repos to the debian archive, to eliminate the need for doing that manual, etc). But I don't see them migrating to a newer version of Debian - too much effort for end-of-life platforms.
I recently bought the 8Gb version of the ZIMA Board. It is my intention to use my 2 Netgear NAS systems as file servers and use this board as a frondend to them.I'll probably by a 4-port NIC to do this.
At least I will be able to run recent versions of OwnCloud, PLex, etc.
The ZIMA Board by default runs CasaOS. Is there any reason to switch to another Linux implementation?
