  • I think the reason for RED rev.2 was to be able to reflash the device.  A bricked rev.1 is a paperweight. [:(] [;)]

    This week bought two RED of a partner in Brazil ... the equipment that I received were RED v. 1. That is correct? Can I make the switch to RED v2?
  • I know of several people that had a bricked RED rev.1; they had to buy a new RED rev.2.

    In the USA, all REDs have been rev.2 this year, I think.  If you paid full price for these units, I think you should ask the partner for replacement.  If you got them for a cheap proce, I recommend you use your savings to buy the 2-year advance-replacement upgrade.

    They can be easily distinguished:

    RED v1 has NO USB Ports

    RED v2 has one USB PORT and is Astaro branded (dark chassis and orange labels)

    RED v3 is identical to RED v2 but is Sophos branded (white chassis)
