ReadyNas 102 - dead following firmware upgrade + factory reset doesnt work
Any help really appreciated ! It would appear that my ReadyNas102 recently performed an automatic firmware upgrade - I got the usual emails saying : - Firmware upgrade is scheduled to update fir...
Thank you Stephen
I have tried these on Windows 11 however they appear incompatible (cant install the driver). I will get access to a windows 10 PC at the weekend and try again.
I will post back on how I get on
Kind Regards

Hi
Ive now tried this on Windows 10 without success.
Installed btrfs version 1.8 and rebooted as requested
Installed WINMD and rebooted as requested
3x Disks now show up in the file manager - all called "Local Disk" however selecting any of them gives a pop-up error saying "<DISK Letter> is not accessible. The device is not ready"
If i go to Windows Disk Management I can see the 3x new volumes - (Disc 2 partition 1), (Disk 2 partition 2) and (Disk 2 partition 3). Sizes 4.00 GB, 512 MB and 927.01 GB. Layout = Simple, Type = Basic, File System = Blank
Any suggestions ?
Much appreciated
Richard
Found a solution - tried several versions of Linux before coming to OpenSuse. This didnt seem to have a version that would boot from a USB so I ended up doing a full install. Anyway, this version of Linux accessed the ReadyNas102 disk just like any other and allowed me to copy the files to an NTFS share on a second disk.
