Package and Accessories

The product box is somewhat different from what we used to see with earlier Netgear products. Orange is replaced with blue in its color scheme while dark-blue and white have remained intact. This change has been due to the company’s intention to color-code its products depending on their positioning.

Exterior Design

The Ultra 2 is designed in the same way as the ReadyNAS Duo we tested earlier, the new hardware platform never showing up. The case is mostly steel except for the front panel which has a few plastic details. The appearance is professional and serious. Even the front-panel indicators are quite inconspicuous except for the one in the Power button.

Hardware Configuration

The Ultra series NASes are based on the x86 platform. The Ultra 2 model has a single-core Intel Atom D425 processor which is clocked at 1.8 GHz and supports Hyper-Threading. The processor chip bears a small aluminum heatsink for cooling. The system memory is limited to a single 1GB DDR3 SO-DIMM.

Getting Started

Ours is a version without HDDs but Netgear also ships this NAS with one or two 2-terabyte disks preinstalled. So, we put our HDDs into the bays (which are designed for 3.5-inch devices only), connected the network and power cables, and pressed the Power button.

Basic Functionality

It is rather hard to see any innovations in Netgear’s firmware that have been implemented over the last year. We do not find them even by reading through the description of the new firmware version. The reason is that the manufacturer doesn’t try to put as many functions into the basic firmware as possible but implements them as add-on modules.

External Devices

Although the hardware platform employed in this NAS supports a lot of peripheral interfaces, the Ultra 2 only offers two USB 2.0 ports based on the chipset and one USB 3.0 port based on an external controller. As with most other NASes, you can use these ports to connect external disks (flash drives and HDDs), printers and UPSes.

System Settings

You can check out the status of the NAS by the colorful indicators in the bottom of the window. The home page of the web-interface offers such information as device name, network addresses, serial number, firmware version, memory amount, and disk usage.

From the Manufacturer

Designed for digital media enthusiasts, the NETGEAR ReadyNAS Ultra 2 Plus Home Media Server enables you to store, share, and protect your digital media files and access them easily across all of your networked devices, including your TiVo. It's equipped with two drive bays along with a dual-core processor for maximum performance.
