I have not seen any claims that DUO v2 can be upgraded before the post on this mailinglist. Only numerous claims and complaints about it not being upgradeable, and wrote it off as not interesting when it came ot due to being restricted to 256MB.

Fwd: [Arm-netbook] ARM port(s) BoF at DebConf
ughh :) *sigh* why is this so difficult for manufacturers to understand that there are people who both want and need to push the limits? don't tell me, i know the answer: they want to reduce costs in mass-volume manufacturing. *sigh*. -- Forwarded message -- From: Mehmet Mersin mmer...@gmail.com Date: Tue, Jul 24, 2012 at 12:24 PM Subject: Re: [Arm-netbook] ARM port(s) BoF at DebConf To: Linux on small ARM machines arm-netb...@lists.phcomp.co.uk On Tue, Jul 24, 2012 at 8:06 PM, lkcl luke luke.leigh...@gmail.com wrote: On Tue, Jul 24, 2012 at 12:00 PM, Gordan Bobic gor...@bobich.net wrote: ReadyNAS is DDR1, not DDR3. That's why it's limited to 1GB of RAM - DDR1 SO-DIMMs don't come in sizes 1GB. the specs on the readynas.com web site say that ReadyNas Duo v2 takes DDR3 RAM. Curious. I wonder if the postings I saw with the RAM part numbers used was for the older ReadyNAS, then. I clearly recall 333MHz DDR RAM being mentioned. wouldn't surprise me if it was a mistake on the readynas web site... It takes DDR3 RAM, but it's soldered on board. A google image search gave me this link: http://www.legionhardware.com/articles_pages/netgear_readynas_duo_v2,3.html Here is internals of ReadyNAS Duo (not v2): http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/networking/display/netgear-readynas-duo_4.html A forum post says that only ReadyNAS Duo has SO-DIMM socket, v2 doesn't have it. Such a pity, with USB3, SATA and Gigabit Ethernet, it's a very good product for this price. But memory is not upgradeable. -mehmet mersin ___ arm-netbook mailing list arm-netb...@lists.phcomp.co.uk http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to arm-netb...@files.phcomp.co.uk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-arm-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
