Hi Guys,
I've had a breakthrough in the last 10 mins.
My Home Folder / main admin account was erased as a result of the recent system outage, luckily I never used the folder for storage. But the major problem was no Admin access.
To Overcome this, create a USB Recovery Stick and boot from front USB, this will reset the admin account, however for me the defaults weren't as I expected.

password: was the very first password I used on the NAS when I unboxed it. Like me you might have changed the password when we did the account merge last year, that new password won't work.
I Hope this helps someone as I've been trying for days and finally got somewhere, now do I risk OS 6.70 .... :0
