Leave well enough alone? T49 to T60?

Postby ensign_ricky » Sun Nov 14, 2010 4:26 am

I've an NV+ with 4x20WDEARS 2TB drives. I installed the T49 Beta and the NAS is running faultlessly. Do I really need to upgrade to the 4.1.7. T60 release?

Thanks.

Don't update to T60. Go straight to the production release: http://www.readynas.com/RAIDiator_4_1_7_Notes

Depending on the issue, support may not be able to help you if you encounter issues staying on beta firmware.

You will want to update to 4.1.7 final when possible. As said above, support can't assist with beta firmware, you want production versions on it.

There isn't a big difference between T49 and final, so you will be fine.
