Bit-rot detected Error
Im limited in rnas experience & im getting this regular error for some time on one of my older nas's running OS6.6.1 is there a fix? bitrot is not enabled have tried returning to OS4 with same result...

Ok, still running on the new beta firmware you suggested, I removed the 2x 2TB compatable nas hdd's from ultra2 replaced them with one brand new 2TB hdd, formated, setup nas then I rsync'd a share (98gb) from one of the Rn31200 to the ultra 2, Bingo!! no errors!! restarted a few times, rebooted a few times, still no BitRot errors, rsync another full share (450Gb) over hopefully when that finishes I get no errors it will be solved.

6.6.1 working perfect on 2x RN31200 Readynas & 1 other Rnas ultra 2, the Error doesn't seem to be a problem but it is an error everytime i reboot etc.. so i'd lke to sort it after 6mths of trying.
