Have you checked to see if your unit is still under warranty?
With e.g. a 314, you should be able to:
1. Put a spare disk (must not be from your array) in the 314
2. Update the firmware to latest
3. Verify the update was successful
4. Power down and remove the spare disk

7. Backup your data
8. Do a factory default (wipes all data, settings, everything)
9. Restore data from backup.
Note it would be considerably more difficult with the 104, so I would not recommend the 104.
However if you have a Sparc ReadyNAS e.g. Duo, NV, NV+, 1100 then the 104 would likely not be any more difficult than the 314, however the procedure would be more difficult than using a 314 to get data back from an NVX.
