CloseThis item has been discontinued by the manufacturer and is no longer available.
The 1TB ReadyNAS Duo Network Hard Drive from Netgear is a high-capacity network hard drive. It features a Gigabit Ethernet interface, remote file access over the Internet, UPnP AV streaming, and an integrated BitTorrent client. The drive supports Windows, Mac, Linux, and UNIX clients, making it an excellent option for small business networks.
- Gigabit Ethernet Interface
- The Gigabit Ethernet interface allows users to access data and administrators to administer the drive remotely through a standard LAN connection, making it easy to add to your existing network infrastructure.
- RAID 1 Capability
- As configured, the enclosure ships with a single physical hard drive. It has an unoccupied drive bay, into which you can install a 3.5" SATA drive of identical capacity. Doing so creates a RAID 1 system, which writes data simultaneously to both physical drives in real time. This creates a realtime backup of your data, ensuring that no data will be lost in the event of a single drive failure.
- USB Storage Expansion and Printing
- The ReadyNAS Duo features three USB 2.0 ports for expansion. You can connect any USB mass storage device, including digital cameras, external hard drives, flash drives, and memory cards, to these ports to make their data accessible over your network. You can also use the ports to turn the ReadyNAS into a USB print server, or to connect it to a monitoring port of an Uninterruptible Power Supply.
- Remote File Access
- When connected to an Internet router, the ReadyNAS Duo can be configured to share files via the web. It features security features so that only you will be able to access your data.
- UPnP Streaming
- The device is complaint with the UPnP standard for media streaming. This allows network UPnP devices to access movies, photos, and music stored on the ReadyNAS. Examples of UPnP devices include the Netgear EVA8000, Sonos Digital Music System, Logitech Squeezebox, Sony Playstation 3, and Microsoft Xbox 360.
- BitTorrent Client
- The ReadyNAS Duo features an embedded BitTorrent client. This allows you to download files via the BitTorrent protocol, without having to leave your computer on constantly.

Comments about Netgear 1TB ReadyNAS Duo Network Hard Drive:
Bought this device as a backup device that could be accessed remotely. Setup was a nightmare and took numerous calls to an asian call centre. When it was setup we found it could not be accessed remotely because the ReadyNAS remote software screws up your internet connection. You install it and everything works, restart the computer and no internet. Netgear have confirmed they are aware of the problem but have no idea when it will be fixed. It is documented back to May so it is not going to happen very soon so it is best to avoid the Netgear products until it is which is a pity because they are extremely well made.

Comments about Netgear 1TB ReadyNAS Duo Network Hard Drive:
I bought the ReadyNAS to replace a 1TB USB drive I had attached to my wireless router. Once all the files where transferred over to the ReadyNAS, I removed the HDD from the desktop unit and placed it in the ReadyNAS. Then I got full RAID and reuse a previous investment!
Got it up an running in a few hours without any glitches!
