Please Add Scheduled Scrub to OS 6.x
Please add capability for automatic / scheduled / recurring RAID scrub to ReadyNAS OS 6. Currently, this capability is initiated manually via System -> Volumes -> Data -> Scrub. I manually initiate weekly scrub. The correction of soft errors needs a mechanism that forces discovery across the entire data space. The frequency and importance of discovery and correction becomes significant as disk drive density and size increases. This feature was part of previous generation ReadyNAS devices.
Thanks, Greg

- dbreiny1AspirantCompletely agree… I can hardly believe this feature is not already in the software. Features of 6.x are good, but I still will not give up my Pro 6 running 4.x :?
Please add this functionality to OS 6.x!
-David - mh5blAspirant:D Looks like they heard you. This has been added to version 6.2
