ReadyNAS LCD error - frozen on boot - fans spinning
Hi all, Came home today to find my ReadyNAS wasn't connected to the network. Went to the unit and the fans are spinning incredibly loudly, the sides of the unit are hot, and the LCD displays the ...
Thanks StephenB.
I unforunately don't have access to any windows or linux devices. One of the disks was warmer on removal initially but would need to recheck which...
I did (after posting the message) remove all disks in sequence and reinsert and received a new error which looked like BTRF corruption. I managed to flash the original OS from the boot menu and reboot the device and slowly inserted the disks again - assuming one of them is the potential culprit
It's now been sitting on resynching data for the past 29 hours and counting. Up to 99.7x%... whether the RAID is recoverable not sure.
Wasn't aware the unit had a 3 year warranty but will keep in mind. I bought it a bit over 2 years ago.
Still unclear as to what the error is... or what will happen next.

Not sure exactly what steps you took here, but you might have lost your data.
Are you removing each disk with the the NAS powered down? Then power down after the boot test, restore that disk, and move on to the next?
- I did yes. Nothing specific happened during that process until all disks were in and the resync started
Log checked showed me all disks had passed SMART status.
It just finished the sync and has frozen again. Fans aren’t particularly active. New error on the LCD and unresponsive power button again.
finish_task_switch+44Try a factory default with only one disk in place. Then let it run long enough for you to see if it is stable or not.

The NAS thresholds for "pass" are quite a bit higher than the thresholds I use. Meaning that it will pass disks that I won't use.
smart_history log has 3 ATA errors in 2019 and 2020 combined.
2019
-18th April. zero reallocated sectors. zero events. 2 pending sectors. zero correctable.
-22nd April. zero reallocated sectors. zero events. 5 pending sectors. zero correctable.
Two different drives
2020
-14th March. zero reallocated sectors. zero events. 6 pending sectors. zero correctable.
-same drive as 22nd April 2019
Thoughts on this?
I have done as suggested - factory default with one of the disks. Has 2x 3TB and 2x 6TB in place, trialling one of the 3TB. Will see how it goes re stability.
I presume my data on the remaining disks is likely toast...?
