Download the firmware you want to re-install, unzip, and install it via frontview. 4.2.21 can be found here: http://www.readynas.com/?p=6469 If you are going back too far there would be an issue, but not if you are going back to 4.2.21. What firmware are you running now?

I am running 4.2.22 and even this morning with a room temp of 14dC and a fresh startup of the NAS ( on schedule for auto start at 7am ) the NAS fans went berserk and has been doing same since...

So do I just install this over the existing firmware then? I will await for your reply before attempting the rollback. I am assuming it is as simple as you said, dl, unzip, install via frontview. I am sceptical and can NOT afford to screw my NAS is all. 8TB of data and no other backup.. yes I know... I am looking into tape as my secondary backup but pricey.

EDIT: Well I simply downloaded the file from the link provided, installed via Frontview and let the NAS perform the reboots.

I ask as the only thing I have had to do with my NAS is change out dead HDD's - I really need to get those WD Reds...

EDIT: Successfull Roll-Back worked without errors, phew... Fan appears to be running on high still as I write this, now it has reduced to lower speed. Will watch and listen and update as it goes. Has only made a small difference, the fans are still ramping up their speed. I have even placed a small desk fan facing away from the side panel where the CPU blows out to hopefully draw more air through and out of the unit until I get this sorted. Thinking going to have to buy one of those portable AC units and make my own AC case. The summer is only ramping up here in Australia, is only spring and we have already had 34dC weather, forbid what happens when summer actually hits.

Ok no this hasn't stopped the fan from spinning up... this is so annoying do I rollback another one or not? As above I have blown ( with the air compressor ) the entire unit out. hmmm perhaps I need to install another fan internally somehow
Thankyou also.
