According to the bios_ver.log, I have a 05/26/2010 FLAME6-2 V1.1 product.

Ah then this is not an issue with OS6 on legacy at all. There is a known power on issue with an old BIOS on an Ultra 6.

You will need to update the BIOS to the latest: 06/10/2010: http://www.readynas.com/download/addons ... .5-x86.bin

Easiest way to install would be to:

1. Power down

2. Remove your disks (label order)

3. Put a scratch disk in (must not be from your array)

4. Do a factory default (wipes all data, settings, everything)

5. Downgrade to RAIDiator-x86-4.2: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Community-Add-ons/Downgrade-to-RAIDiator-x86-from-ReadyNAS-OS-notsupported/td-p/859412
6. Install the BIOS update add-on

7. After you get an alert that the add-on has installed successfully, reboot and check bios_ver.log to make sure the BIOS has updated.

8. Update the box back to 6.4.1

9. Power down

10. Remove your scratch disk

11. Put your disks back in same order as before

12. Set the power timer again and see if it works

Note that it is important not to interrupt the BIOS upgrade whilst it is in progress as it would brick the system.
