Desktop Computer Review: Readynas Duo 2TB Desktop Gbe Review

This device is fast, great for home use and is fairly fast. The setup is very easy however make sure you read all the tips as some firewalls will prohibit the software to see the device. The Marketing and box states it will run at 1GB Ethernet speeds. This is true BUT NOT WITH THE SUPPLIED ACCESSORIES. They give you a CAT5 cable which can only achieve 100MB speeds. I would think most people do not know that fact and would cause them to wonder why the device is slow. I did buy a CAT5e cable for $3 to replace it and it does run at the stated 1GB speed with my supplied cable. Quite cheap of Netgear in my mind. Netgear would not replace the cable after numerous attempts. Otherwise the device is working fine.

The spare hard drive will keep an extra copy of all the data and instantly take over if the first hard drive should fail. Advanced media streaming support allows the ReadyNAS to directly serve media, with no PC required. Officially licensed BitTorrent client allows downloading to occur without the need for an additional computer. A web-based interface facilitates download management from computers, and a special NETGEAR digital entertainer interface allows management from the select NETGEAR device.
