Maximum Drive capacity
Hi, I am using RN2120 with 4x3TB drives. I want to upgrade it with higher capacity drives. Currently it is running on ReadyNas ver 6.9.3. 1) I want to know the maximum size of hard disk size it can accept on single bay and what is the maximum raw capacity of RN2120. 2) How do I know if my RN2120 is RN2120V2 ? Thanks.SolvedWireless Performance Mixing AC3000 / AC2200
Current system: RBK50 (claims up to 5,000sq ft) coverage. FW v1.12.0.18 Home: 2 story 2,600sq ft, nothing significant from a construction or interference stand point. RBR50 on first floor left side of house. RBS50 on second floor middle of structure. While the orbi has improved sustained throughput to most wireless devices, its signal does not deliver (not even close) to the theoretical sq footage estimate. This was the primary reason for the purchase and is for the most part largely disappointing. I'd rate it at 2,500sq ft maximum. I'm not going through bricks, metal or glass (nothing crazy). Have messed withthe MIMO and beamforming settings as well. Sorry netgear, fail thus far. I'm really not interested in purchasing another RBS50 for $250 when the current broadcast performace is only marginally better in comparison to a WNDR4500 or R6400 that served the house previously. I expected a little bit more from a signal (broadcast) perspective. Comparitively, the R7000 at my other house does better broadcast (signal) wise. New FW: So I see Netgear has v2.x FW available which I am going to try later today. I'll try turning the broadcast power to 10 and see if things improve. We have no neighbors so I won't be "unfriedly" from that perspective. Now my question. If I put a RBW30 (AC2200) in the "mostly dead" room - which happens to be the room directly above where the RBR50 is now... what will this do to the systems throughput? Please, before everyone replies with their speculation (or what they think) please be certain or have something concrete to backup your answer. Network bandwidth whether maximum or theoretical (in a wireless specific situation) can be affected by a device with slower front/backhaul. In this case a AC2200 sattelite on the AC3000 network. Thus far, I haven't found any documention that answers this question. Great if the AC2200 opearates "isolated" without affecting the entire networks bandwidth, but I'd like to get confirmation on this before investing further in this solution. I hope the v2 FW will improve the broadcast signal strength, as this is my only real complain with the orbi. Throughput is there, I just don't want to shoot myself in the foot and cripple what I have. Wish the SRK60 was available when I purchased the RBK50. I would have gladly spent the additional money.Solved
ReadyNas 104 maximum expansion
Hi evryone, today is a second day with my ReadyNas 104 and I'm very satisfied of this product ! I have one question on the maximum volume capacity to 16TB with the new firmware. The best solution with x-raid is 2x 5TB and 2x 6TB hard drive? so as have 15TB? Now my ReadyNas has 2x 3TB WD RED and I want considering the best volume upgrade by future. Thanks, GiusepeSolved3.9KViews0likes5Comments
