ReadyNAS™ Pro is the newest and most powerful member of the award-winning ReadyNAS
product family. Designed for small and medium businesses, workgroups and home offices,
ReadyNAS Pro delivers class-leading performance, ease of use, and robust features in a small
desktop form factor chassis supporting 6 SATA channels and up to 9 TB of storage. This 6-bay
network attached storage (NAS) appliance is packed with enterprise server features, including
RAID (redundant array of independent disks) levels 0, 1, 5, 6, and Auto-Expandable X-RAID2
support for data protection against disk failure, system monitoring capabilities and built-in
backup. To ensure high availability to stored data, the ReadyNAS Pro features dual redundant
Gigabit Ethernet ports for failover protection.
Powered by an Intel
®
multi-core processor, the ReadyNAS Pro is a powerful NAS for mission-
critical business data across a variety of different platforms. The high-performance platform
coupled with dual Gigabit Ethernet and jumbo frame support provides enough bandwidth to
allow more users to access data storage simultaneously.
With an easy Web browser interface and setup wizard, ReadyNAS can be configured with
minimal effort — saving you valuable time. Traditional file servers can take hours to configure,
and they don’t have built-in system monitoring and email alerts. With the ReadyNAS Pro, you’ll
receive email alerts whenever something out of the ordinary arises, such as disk failure, over-
temperature condition, and fan failure, giving you peace of mind.
The ReadyNAS Pro utilizes hardware-accelerated RAID to ensure full data redundancy without
compromising the system performance. Incorporating Intel Matrix Storage Technology, the
ReadyNAS Pro supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, and NETGEAR’s patent pending X-RAID2™, with
hot spare capability. With RAID 6, the system ensures data integrity even with 2 simultaneous
disk failures. The extra disk bays provided by the 6-bay ReadyNAS Pro makes RAID 6 and
hot spares practical options worth considering to prevent any prolonged state in which the
ReadyNAS data volume is left in an unprotected state.
X-RAID2 is the 2nd generation of ReadyNAS’s proven patent-pending Auto-Expandable RAID
technology. X-RAID2 automates the volume expansion for you as you scale from 1 drive to 6
drives while keeping your data online. Additionally, as your storage requirement grows, you
can replace your disks with larger capacity ones, and X-RAID2 automatically and incrementally
expands your storage “vertically.” No other NAS devices in this class can do this without
reformatting your disks and shuffling your data back and forth.
