Note: If you have a ReadyNAS running RAIDiator, select "Legacy" to show a new dropdown, then select your model. WARNING: NETGEAR Support can and will deny support on devices using drives not found on the official compatibility list. Finally, it is good practice to always backup your data. Selecting the wrong drive for your workload could result in early drive failure and possible data loss. Enterprise class drives are designed for constant operation (typically 24 hours a day, 7 days a week) and have higher MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) rates as well as higher load/unload cycles. Desktop class drives are designed for less stressful operation (typically 8 hours a day, 5 days a week) and have limited load/unload cycles. Updating firmware does not affect data unless you factory reset.

You may update to the latest either the auto update through the FrontView or locally. We also encourage you to select drives that most closely align with your planned workload. The latest firmware for your ReadyNAS is 4.2.28. These drives generally include 5-year warranties, which matches the 5-year warranty on your business-class ReadyNAS device. Furthermore, if you are using ReadyNAS in a business-critical environment, we strongly recommend drives with a Rotation Vibration Safeguard feature for providing an extra layer of protection from premature drive failure.
