    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.
