Pro Pioneer Keeps Hanging
Based on some research here after I found my RN frozen and no longer able to boot, even to the boot menu, it seemed the power supply was bad. I tested the theory with another supply and it booted ok,...
Just following up on this thread to close. StephenB was extremely helpful in diagnosing the issue, which ended up being faulty hard disks. Wonderful that some folks here are not only wildly talented and knowledgable, but also cheerfully willing to help those in need.
Cheers Stephen!

You shouldn't post the entire log zip, as there is privacy leakage when you do that. You might want to look in system.log and kernel.log at around the time of the failure. If you want you can send me a download link to the logs (dropbox, google drive, etc). Send it in a private message (PM) - using the envelope link in the upper right of the forum page.
How much memory is installed? Many have found that the stock 1GB of RAM isn't enough for OS-6. I recommend upgrading that (2x2 GB is very inexpensive).
One test is to run the backup on the source NAS (with a remote destination), and see if that completes.
Thank you very much sir, for your assistance. Link to logs has been sent to you by PM.
The disk sync completed overnight and the NAS was still running and accessible this morning.
The memory and CPU were upgraded about 5 years ago. Memory is 4Gb, don't recall the CPU but all has been stable since then.
I have a smaller backup job of about 6Tb running now on the other NAS, pushing to this one, so I'll monitor that and report what happens.
Cheers!
