NETGEAR Releases ReadyNAS Ultra For Storage

NETGEAR, Inc has announced the elimination of local media storage with its new ReadyNAS Ultra family of storage systems.

The new ReadyNAS Ultra family of 2-Bay, 4-Bay and 6-Bay network storage systems is for power users yearning to set their digital entertainment content free. The Ultra family is storage with media-shifting capabilities, enabling users to centralise media on a ReadyNAS and consume it in any networked location and on any networked device.

“NETGEAR’s ReadyNAS Ultra family is a major breakthrough, converging mobility and content consumption,” said Drew Meyer, Director of Storage Marketing, NETGEAR. “ReadyNAS has always been an excellent choice for storing, sharing and protecting media content, but now our technology firsts take that content to the next level. Users may now shift media from any networked location onto nearly any device and unplug their direct-attached disks.”

Features:

• NETGEAR ReadyNAS Ultra products are the first TiVo compatible DVR network storage systems. Users can now alleviate storage capacity concerns by streaming HD programming content to any TiVo box in the house at a later date without additional software or computers.
• NETGEAR ReadyNAS Ultra products are the first storage systems with Skifta media-shifting capabilities, so users can access their private media libraries remotely from any DLNA certified device without worrying about the physical location of their content.
• NETGEAR ReadyNAS Ultra products are also the first-ever network storage systems to include transcoding. The Orb integration means that a ReadyNAS Ultra device automatically formats and sizes streaming video content for mobile devices or browsers - on the fly.
