the only issue about this approach is. if its running raid 1, replacing with a higher capacity will not full utilise its full capacity. rebuilding will be base on its original setup. even raid 5 or higher configuration will have such problem.

My sighted tech set it up for me though. The web interface worked pretty much as well as Internet Explorer. I think you have to accept the possibility that sighted assistance is required for installing and configuring units that take SATA hard drives. Who knows, maybe they have improved. One trick I learned for software which starts automatically is that you can often bypass a graphical start up screen by looking at the autorun.ini file and see the executable it calls, like setup.exe, and then just run that one yorself. hth, Rod On 4/29/14 6:04 AM, Chris Grabowski wrote: > Hi, > I have used the netgear readynas.
