Re: RN2120 advertised storage, iSCSI volume, diagnostics
The max LUN size for the RN2120 is in fact 8 TB. See page 85 of the software manual: http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS-100/READYNAS_OS_6_SM_EN.pdf

If I go through the process and create an 8TB LUN, do you have any idea why it doesn't show up on the Admin/iSCSI page?
No - LUNs aren't a feature I use myself, so I don't have practical experience with creating them.

Re: RN2120 advertised storage, iSCSI volume, diagnostics
I guess with overheads creating an 8TB LUN would put it over the 8TB limit.
If you need to have llarger LUNs you'd need to get a x86 ReadyNAS.

Re: RN2120 advertised storage, iSCSI volume, diagnostics
It would be useful if it displayed the maximum space available after taking any overheads in to consideration. If you see something in a shop for £10 it means £10 - not £9.99. I digress.
Apolgies for being thick but you lost me on "If you need to have llarger LUNs you'd need to get a x86 ReadyNAS" ?

Well, the Admin page told me that I had 8TB to use but every time I tried to create an 8TB LUN, absolutely nothing happened. However, specify 7.99TB and it works fine!!
They should fix that - and they should also generate a clear error message if the size is too large. Silently failing is definitely not nice.
