2-32 Setting Up and Managing Your ReadyNAS 2100
v1.0, May 2009
Updating from the NETGEAR Web Site
The preferred and quicker method if the ReadyNAS 2100 has Internet access is the Remote update
option. Select Update from the main menu and then select the Remote tab. Click Check for
Updates to check for updates on the NETGEAR update server.
If you wish to continue, click Perform System Update. After the update image has been
downloaded, you will be asked to reboot the system. The update process updates only the firmware
image and does not modify your data volume. However, it is always a good idea to back up your
important data whenever you perform an update.
Updating from a Local Drive
When the ReadyNAS 2100 device is not connected to the Internet, or Internet access is blocked,
you can download an update file from the Support site and upload that file to the ReadyNAS 2100
by selecting the Local update tab. The update file can be a RAIDiator firmware image or an add-on
package.
