RN516 looking for instructions to update/access BIOS

[ispljjd]

New user with RN516 looking for instructions to access/update bios, as I would like to change the devices boot order.

Why do you want to change the boot order?

If you download the logs, what is the BIOS version in bios_ver.log?

[ispljjd]

bios_date=03/23/2013
bios_vendor=American Megatrends Inc.
bios_version=4.6.5

I want to make sure that I have the latest BIOS. I did finally see the message that flashed across my screen instructing me to hit ESC to access it, including the boot order.

I am installing FreeNAS. I installed a new processor that supports encryption in FreeNAS. I upgraded the RAM, but noticed that the maximum capacity that each slot would recognize was 8GB. I am hoping that FreeNAS will recognize 16GB in each slot.

I noticed that you provided other users the necessary files to install the latest BIOS on some older NAS units. I was hoping that you could help me with my RN516.

That looks like it may be the earliest production BIOS (or if not, close to it).

Unfortunately updating the BIOS isn't as easy for the 516.

I don't think any more than 16TB (2x8GB RAM) would work though I could be wrong.

it should at least take up to 16GB RAM (ECC).
