RND2000 Duo
Hi guys,
Not sure if this has been asked before, sorry if it has.
I opened up my newly purchased NasDuo and installed a 1Gig DDR2 in replace of the 256Meg sodimm it was shipped with. The system boots and everythings appears fine for the past week,
however do I need to do something special for it to take advantage of the added ram or is the (assuming here) beta Linux just not capable of using more that what the unit is shipped with?
TIA
Milamber

I recommend running the memory test at least twice if you haven't already. See http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=26993
Have a read of these links.

There isn't necessarily going to be much benefit (if at all) from the extra RAM. It does depend on what you do. Also remember the slow CPU is also a bottleneck.
x86 desktop systems come with 1GB RAM, but these come with much faster CPUs.
