ReadyNAS Duo v1, etherne flashing green fixed amber= no see?
Hi my ReadyNAS Duo v1 has been working for many years really well, that is until this weekend. It has two 2Tb HDD that are Raided. I also have a ReadyNAS Duo v2 with one 4Tb HDD, that is also workin...
Hi Guys. Thanx for help.
Success, but painfully. Had to do a full Factory Reset and reload the files, thankx to recovery from the HDD using the free Linux Reader.
It seems that several things must have happened to the Duo v1 that weekend.
1. It now appears that the log files totalled (53 files @ 1.23Gb) => Must manage the log files more regularly, achieved by accessing this & clearing thru Frontview.
2. The Firmware had become corrupted and this I did successfully, in as much as that Duo v1 could be seen on the LAN, however I was not able to set personalised passwords on the NAS as Frontview was corrupted.
3. Unfortunately, something had corrupted the HDD use through Frontview (proven by using a spare HDD to test the Duo v1), so I found myself obliged to go back to a Factory Reset.
Now all ok and recovering the data to this NAS.
NB. When using audio files from the ReadyNas (or I believe other NAS systems), I believe & found that it is necessary to personalize the passwords on the NAS before SONOS will gain access to and therefore create its Library from the NAS. (Hence the need for a full factory reset in my case, so I could manage the passwords etc.)
Thanks to StephenB & mdgm.
