allnet 6400+ to Thecus 4100+

[ralf1962]

Hello,

I am looking for a solution how I can do a crossupdate for my Allnet 6400+ NAS to Thecus 4100+.

Allnet has stopped the support, and I need a way to enable NFS.
Allnet don't provide modules for that and although the firmware is from 2007. When trying to update with an Thecus firmware
I get at first:

CIFS/SMB, WebDisk und UPnP werden während der Firmware-Aktualisierung ausgeschaltet.
Ihre aktuelle Firmware-Version : 2.0.04.3
Firmwareversions-Upload : 2.00.06
Möchten Sie systeem aktualisieren?

what means that the system asks me if I really want to upgrade.
and CIFS/SMB, WebDisk and UPNP services are stopped.
Choosing yes brings:

the warning not to switch of the power followed
by the error that the firmware could not be updated.

I think, that the system checks the manufacturer of the firmware and stops the update in case of mismatch.

Is there anbody familar with this issue ?

Regards

Ralf

hi,
Do you have an old allnet firmware update ?
One suggestion is to change the n4100 to include the 6100 tag.

Hi all,
I know, its an old thread

I think about crossgrading an ALL6400+ (FW 2.00.07) to N4100pro.

Is there any way to work it out?

What are the arguments pro/con crossgrading?

Thanks
