Netgear RN31664E – ReadyNAS 316 6-Bay, 6x4TB Enterprise Drive Guía Del Software

Firmware is the software that operates your ReadyNAS storage system. It is written directly to your system’s
onboard flash memory. NETGEAR periodically releases firmware updates to improve your storage system.
Because firmware is stored in flash memory, updating the firmware requires a special process.

Updates are numbered chronologically, for example:

ReadyNAS OS 6.0.1

ReadyNAS OS 6.0.2

You can update the firmware on your ReadyNAS system remotely from the NETGEAR website or manually
from a local drive. The update process changes only the firmware; it does not modify your data.

We recommend that you back up your data, especially data that cannot be replaced, before you perform a
firmware update.

If your ReadyNAS system can access the Internet, the remote method is easiest way to update your firmware.

Log in to your ReadyNAS.

Select System > Settings > Update.

Click the Check for Updates button.
The following occurs:

If no firmware update is available (or if your connection to the internet is interrupted), you are notified
that your system is using the most current firmware.

If a firmware update is available, a pop-up window opens and you are prompted to update your
system.

If a firmware update is available, click the Update button in the pop-up window.
