Hello drvikramk,
What's the model number and FW version of your NAS?
You must mean Volume Degraded. The volume is degraded because one or more than one disk has been removed. What that means is that the volume can not recover from another disk failure. XRAID with single redundancy can only protect against loss of one disk.
Can you describe what exactly happened during the last activity or before this error appeared?Regards,
Hello drvikramk,
To back up your data, probably try the steps in this article: How do I back up data from my ReadyNAS OS 6 system to a USB disk?
I suggest to do it by per share.
