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.
Something has just occurred to me. While this forum correspondence has been going on, I have transitioned from PC to Mac. Will I need to do anything different in order to access the NAS from the Mac?

You'll need to enable afp as a file shareing protocol.
On the web interface, you'll need to use a down-rev version of Firefox to reach frontview to work around the SSL protocol version issue (safari won't connect).
Thank you for all the advice so far. I have made a clean start with new disks in the NAS, and have uploaded from my last saved backup, and am now in the process of uploading the missing music from CDs. I did have a copy of the latest iTunes database, so I have been able to just upload the files, while all the original information like playcount is preserved. Access from the Mac is working well after activating AFP. I have a version of Firefox 94.0.2 running. It was possible to install this in parallel with the latest version, and I just need to remember to dismiss the offer to update to the latest version.
The latest problem I have encountered is in setting up a new backup job. I have registered a USB disk as a share. I used to put the backup in a folder in the USB drive called Backup, however, if I try to navigate to this using Browse, nothing is shown in the Select Folder window, and the browser window just sits frozen. I have tried this also on a PC, and get the same behaviour. Am I doing something wrong here?
Additional Information: After quite a long delay, the Select Folder window comes up showing EMPTY, at which point the buttons are usable.
