ReadyNAS NV+ stall during File System check at 19%
My ReadyNAS NV+ is stalling during the File System check at 19%. It is visible in RAIDar, and all four disks register as healthy, until the 19% point is reached, at which point RAIDar cannot find t...
Yes, it's basically that easy. There is a time-out (10 min, I think), after which it will automatically move forward with XRAID volume creation. You can use RAIDar to skip that wait and/or switch to FlexRAID. Remember that anything you've done to get around the TLS 1.0 issue will no longer be present, so you'll need to use a browser that still supports it. The default admin password will be netgear1. Also remember that the max drive size for an NV+ V1 is 2TB.
Just curious, but what is the basis of this limit? Is it the hardware? I've run drives as large as 18TB without an issue in my various units running os4.

No GPT support is one aspect. This particular NAS uses RAID acceleration hardware, and that is possibly another part of it.

There are limits to expansion in OS4.
- A volume cannot be expanded over 16 TiB
- A volume cannot be expanded more than 8 TiB larger than its initial size.
OS6 doesn't have either of these limits.
Ah, makes sense if there is a 'storage controller' or something like that going on vs straight sata.
Yep, aware of the other limitations, but definitely not limited on my units to 2TB, which is nice. 🙂
It's a hardware issue. Not enough address lines. Very old PC's have a similar limitation.
