list of complaints.
this piece of junk constantly dings
with power warnings, 1.58 expected 1.50
other warnings. unexpected errors. uncompleted tasks.
right now i tried to update the firmware or software or whatever the POS dinged it failed (OF COURSE!) but the update light is flashing, and it says it has "background tasks that prevent me from turning off"
it says the iscsi drive failed to be created but i also got a message saying it was created successfully.
typing in the unit IP defaults to "myshares" if its intended for a corporate environment "my shares" isnt a corporate structuring. one HAS TO KNOW to type in /admin to admin this.
your forum is also retarded with passwords i need a Capitol letter and a char and a num? not many forums require this type of security (FOR NO REASON ITS A STUPID READYNAS NOT FORT KNOX!!!)
'thanks for making me use a password i wont Fing remember.
if i had to choose again i WOULD NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS GET THIS POS

"error in evaluating table display tsl Error" no such interface supported"

WOW WHAT A PIECE OF S>>> - justinmsrAspirantCANT EVEN DELETE A VOLUME WITHOUT THIS JUNKBOX FAILING. OH MY FING GOD!!!
- fastfwdVirtuosoYeah, if I had a dollar for every time I've heard that list of complaints... I'd have one dollar.
Dude, your machine is broken. Maybe it's fixable with a factory reset to defaults and/or an OS reinstall, maybe not (the power errors are an indication that perhaps it's not).
If you bought the box new from an authorized dealer, call Netgear. They'll take care of you.
If it's used or the warranty is no longer valid for some other reason, you might be able to get some help here on the forum... But you'll have to calm down a little and post some information that's actually helpful. Like for starters, what model ReadyNAS is it? - beisser1Tutor
"error in evaluating table display iscsitarget Typeerror: Unable to get property "innerHTML" of undefined or null referance"
"error in evaluating table display tsl Error" no such interface supported"
these sound like browser issues. are you using some old version of firefox maybe or is the nas still running some dusty old firmware-version?
some info would be helpful:
1. what model nas
2. what firmware-version
3. what browser and version are you trying to access the nas with?
that power error points toward an issue with either psu or mainboard. as fastfwd said, contact netgear support about that.
for all the other errors you may have we would need either logfiles or screenshots to comment on them. - justinmsrAspirantNAS = rndp6000
firmware = 4.2.20 (upgraded manually)
browser = ie10/opera16
i have a feeling the old IT admin had the same issues when he got it and just shoo'd it under the rug. he loved iscsi and i think he'd have had it plugged into our xenserver.
what screenshots would help the most? if i could just get more then 8tb for file storage i be happy enough. - beisser1Tutorcould you check if you see the same iscsi error popping up when you use chrome or firefox?
if you have problems upgrading the firmware to the current 4.2.24 firmware, then contact support as well.
they can figure our why it wont update and in the worst case update it manually from techsupport mode.
well screenshots would certainly help explain things. and logfile would allow people to actually look for stuff that could cause what you are describing (except for the voltage stuff thats definitely hardware). - justinmsrAspirantseagate barracude 4000GB model ST4000DM000 P/N 1F2168-568 firmware CC51
- justinmsrAspirant







restating that i've restored it to factory twice. - mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredThose screenshots are all from 4.2.20 and are all from using Internet Explorer. Have you updated the firmware to 4.2.24 yet?
Frontview in old firmware has compatibility issues with IE10. You need to update to 4.2.23 (or later), or run IE10 in compatibility mode for an older version of IE or try another web browser such as Firefox or Chrome. - justinmsrAspiranti tried to update it again and it said it was up to date???
i tried all the same operations on opera and chrome, per a request.
what about the 8Tb limit with 6x4tb drives? shouldnt i have like 12-16tb?
i will have it updated and re-tested on tuesday
