ReadyNAS OS 6 Desktop Storage Systems
Supported Disks
Use only supported SATA hard disk drives (HDD) or solid state drives (SSD) in your
ReadyNAS storage system. If you use disks that are not supported, NETGEAR technical
support will not provide assistance. For a list of supported disks, see the NETGEAR
Hardware Compatibility List at
http://www.netgear.com/readynas-hcl.
Previously Formatted Disks
This section describes how to use previously formatted disks with your ReadyNAS OS 6
storage system.
Previously formatted disks must appear on the NETGEAR Hardware Compatibility List, which
is available at
http://www.netgear.com/readynas-hcl.
Reformat Previously Formatted Disks
If you want to use disks that were previously formatted for an operating system other than
ReadyNAS OS 6 (for example, Windows or RAIDiator), you must reformat the disks.
If you want to use disks from another ReadyNAS OS 6 storage system, see Migrate a
Volume on page 67.
Note: If you try to use previously formatted disks in a system that does not
contain any other disks, the system does not boot and
ReadyCLOUD does not discover your device. If you use RAIDar to
discover your device, RAIDar displays a “Corrupt Root” error
message.
If you try to use previously formatted disks in a system that already
contains usable disks, the system does not reformat or use the
previously formatted disks. Any data on the previously formatted
disk remains intact.
The following instructions describe how to reformat previously formatted disks in a
ReadyNAS OS 6 system. This procedure assumes that the system does not contain any
other disks.
To reformat previously formatted disks with a diskless ReadyNAS OS 6 system:
1. Gracefully shut down the storage system.
For information about how to gracefully shut down your system, see the Preferred
Shutdown section of the chapter that describes your system.
