chaz 0 Posted July 23, 2012 Has anyone had the chance to check out Netgear’s new Ready NAS surveillance system. It looks like a ready nas appliance that Netgear came out with software for ip cameras. Any input? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buellwinkle 0 Posted July 24, 2012 This is what I can ferret out. On top of the cost of a ReadyNAS Pro or Ultra, you are looking at $95 per camera with a 16 camera max. Many cameras are not on their support list, so like any NVR, you would have to make sure your cameras are supported. They are touting their top Pro 2 model as being able to handle 240fps for 1.3MP, so if you have higher megapixel cameras like 1080P or 3MP camera, I would imagine the aggreagate fps drops or if you buy a lower end model NAS you may not get that much. So to add things, up, say you get a small 2TB ReadyNas Pro for about $800, add 4 cameras for another 380, you would have an NVR for $1,200 from a company that provides mediocre support for simple network devices, not sure how well equipped they are to handle a whole new line of business that depends on all the camera manufacturers to play nice. Buying a product this complex in it's infancy is asking for headaches. What do you think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
