ReadyNAS advice?

[vthunder]

Hi everyone,

I'm considering getting a ReadyNAS box, and one of the main uses I'll have for it is to run SABnzbd+ (I no longer want to run my iMac 24/7 just for it).

I know it's not officially supported by the team, but I was hoping I could get some tips from the community.

* does it currently work?
* is it reasonably easy to update it?
* since it isn't tested before release, how often does an update just Not Work?
* is it worth it to splurge on the new "ultra" line (which has faster processors, more memory, more firmware space)?

Thanks for any info you could provide!

SABnzbd is rather hungry for CPU and memory.
A decent processor (say Atom-like) and >256M memory is needed.
More memory is better, 512M would be great.

OK, that means either the Ultra or Ultra Plus lines. Both have Atom processors and 1GB of RAM, the Plus line is dual-core.

Anyone have any info on my other questions? does it work at all right now?
