Basic Setup
After you follow these instructions, your ReadyNAS is ready to use in
a production environment. Setup takes approximately 15 minutes.
To set up your storage system:
1. Install all available disks that you want to use in your ReadyNAS
system.
Note: If you are using previously formatted disks that contain
data, you must reformat these disks before continuing. See
Reformat Disks on page 7.
For a list of supported disks, see the Hardware Compatibility List
at http://www.netgear.com/readynas-hcl.
For information about installing disks, see the hardware manual
for your system.
2. Place your system in a location that provides adequate
ventilation.
High-capacity disks can produce considerable heat. It is
important to ensure that the fan exhausts are unobstructed.
For a complete list of placement considerations, see the
hardware manual for your system.
3. Connect the power cord to the back of the system and plug the
other end into a wall outlet or power strip.

position.

Reformat Disks
If you are using previously formatted disks that contain data, you
must reformat the disks before you can use them with your
ReadyNAS system.
Warning: This process erases all data and reformats all disks into a
single X-RAID2 volume. If you want to preserve the data on the disks,
you must back up the data to an external drive before using the disks
in your ReadyNAS storage system.
You can reformat your disks using the factory default option or using
the RAIDar utility.
To reformat previously formatted disks using the factory
default option:
1. If your system is powered on, gracefully power off the system.
See Additional Information on page 10.
2. Install the previously formatted disks.
For a list of supported disks, see the Hardware Compatibility List
at http://www.netgear.com/readynas-hcl.
For information about installing disks, see the hardware manual
for your system.
3. Using a straightened paper clip, press and hold the Reset button.
4. Press the Power button.
The system powers on.
5. Continue pressing the Reset button until the system enters boot
mode.
•If you have a 4-bay storage system, the Error, LAN1, LAN 2
and Power LEDs all blink when the system is in boot mode.
•If you have a 12-bay storage system, the Power, UI, and
Health LEDs all blink when the system is in boot mode.

Then a 10-minute time-out period begins. After 10 minutes, the
factory default process starts.
7. (Optional) Press the Reset button to skip the 10-minute time-out
period and begin the factory default process immediately.

installed disks for use with ReadyNAS OS 6. When the factory default
process is complete, the reformatted disks are ready to use with your
system.

To reformat previously formatted disks using RAIDar:

ReadyNAS system, download and install the latest version of
RAIDar.
You can find the latest version of RAIDar at
http://www.netgear.com/raidar.
