When Netgear wanted to expand to the NAS appliances market, it made a great move by acquisition the Infrant Technologies. This way, they got their hands on some of the best NAS technology on the market. Why make it from scratch when you can buy someone else’s work, right?
Turns out it was the right move, as Netgear launched number of products after that. While ReadyNAS NV+ is great, home users will probably want to opt out for something like Netgear ReadyNAS Duo. The unit comes with a single HDD, while you have to provide the second one yourself when the time comes. Swapping or adding new drives is very easy, as this device has X-RAID technology which will automatically create mirrored array on the spot. Just plug it in and leave it.
Duo is compact and won’t cluster your work space too much, but don’t be fooled by it’s size, because it packs number of features. In fact, you can expect most features you would find in bigger devices. It supports Windows, Unix, Linux and Mac, and setting up the shares is also simple. You can also control the access by creating groups which you can apply quotas to. When it comes to backups which are also very important feature for such devices, they are easy to create using the interface, and have number of options that follow them.

)NSTALLATION
NETGEAR® ReadyNAS™ NVX
Follow these instructions to install your NETGEAR® ReadyNAS™ NVX. Then, consult
the ReadyNAS NVX User Manual for instructions on configuring and operating your unit. A
link to the ReadyNAS NVX User Manual is on the Resource CD and on the NETGEAR
support site at http://kbserver.netgear.com. These instructions assume the unit is using the
factory default X-RAID2 disk configuration.
Estimated completion time: 20 minutes.
Note: A diskless unit requires installing disks and initializing RAID before proceeding. Go
to http://kbserver.netgear.com for a list of supported disks. Refer to the ReadyNAS NVX
User Manual for instructions on installing disks and configuring RAID.
First, Install the RAIDar Utility
Install the RAIDar utility from the product Resource CD. Windows, MAC and Linux
versions of the RAIDar utility are provided.
Next, Connect the Unit
For initial setup, connect the LAN1 Ethernet port of the ReadyNAS NVX to your network,
and turn it on. It takes about a minute to boot. The factory default is to get its IP address via
DHCP. After it boots, the LCD will display the IP address assigned to the unit and the
amount of disk space available. Note the IP address displayed in the status area.
Log in to the Unit
1.
Run the RAIDar utility. It will detect the unit.
Tip: In your DHCP server, reserve the IP address assigned for your ReadyNAS NVX so
that it always gets this address. This helps assure that mapped drives work consistently
on any operating system.
2.
Click Setup to open a browser ReadyNAS NVX FrontView
session with the unit. The login screen will display. The default
user name is admin and the password is netgear1.
The FrontView configuration utility home page displays.
Use the Setup Wizard to Configure Basic Settings
The Setup Wizard will guide you through setting up basic file sharing. Refer to the
ReadyNAS NVX User Manual for instructions on configuring options like backup, streaming
media servers, printers, VLAN, or user accounts and quotas.
Note: If you choose to bypass the Setup Wizard, be sure to configure and alerts email
address, change the admin password, and provide a password recovery question.
1.
In the factory default state, when
logged in to the unit, Setup
Wizard is enabled. Click Next to
proceed with the wizard.

alerts. Click Next to proceed.
4.
On the Ethernet 1 tab page, accept
or change the IP address settings.
Click Next to proceed.
5.
On the Global Settings tab page,
you can modify the unit’s
hostname. Also, if you will use a
static IP configuration, you will
need to configure the gateway
and DNS settings (you do not
have to change these settings if
you use the unit in its default
DHCP configuration). Click Next
to proceed.
6.
On the Admin Password page,
change the system login
password, and provide a recovery
question, answer, and email
address. Note these changes.
Click Next to proceed.
7.
On the Security Mode tab page,
accept the default option of
“User” which controls access to
shares based on user or group
accounts. FrontView will attempt
to use the first workgroup name
it discovers in the network. Otherwise, it will default to “VOLUME” as the workgroup
name. Specify the workgroup name you want the unit to join. Refer to the ReadyNAS
NVX User Manual for ACS setup instructions. Click Next to proceed.
8.
On the Accounts page, click Add User. Add a new user and user password. Click Next
to finish the wizard. Refer to the ReadyNAS NVX User Manual for full instructions on
