Hello,I have a ReadyNAS Duo V2 with 2 hard drives: WDC WD30EZRX-00DC0B0 3TB in a RAID 1 configuration.If I have do a volume scan of the disks (Shutdown ->Next startup a volume scan) I get almost always the message: Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes Inode 12648454, i_blocks is 686253560, 686253672 Should be. Fix? yesAnd that 365 lines long with only blocks that are wrong.Can someone give me an explanation of thisThe discs are not even a week old.Thank you.Regards, Miplo

Maybe open an on-line support request.

Well I'm sorry you are experiencing these problems but now I know I'm not going mad....I have exactly the same problem...I recently upgraded my 2 x wd 2tb drives to 2 x WD WD30EFRX 3tb red drives on my readynas duo v2 which are on the HCL as approved......everything was well until I started to replace the data back on the NAS....I then noticed the volume indicator went from green to amber........I then did a restart with volume scan, and this flagged up many errors too.....I reported this to tech support who sent me a new nas as they thought it was a hardware fault.....I got the shiny new unit yesterday so I proceeded to do a factory reset with the new discs inserted....I formatted to xraid2 and all was well.....the volume light was green and did another volume scan just to make sure all was well.....and hey presto no errors.....However when I started to replace data back on the NAS as soon as I reached 50% capacity of the 3tb, i.e 1.5tb the volume light went amber again....I did another volume scan and guess what lots of errors again.....I then deleted some of the data off the NAS which took me below the 50% threshold and guess what volume light is green, and another volume scan produced no more errors.....So in conclusion I think there must be some serious bug in firmware 5.3.7. I can no longer trust the integrity of the Readynas DUO v2, and would suggest anyone else to be very cautious with this similar setup until a solution is establishedCASE # 20593050

Hello Brinzlee,Thank you for your clear explanation.I have a case inlaid with Netgear support and wait for their response...The disks that I purchased are disks whose also supports provided ..If a get answers i post it in this topic.Regrads,Miplo90

Hello,I am now a week in conversation with Netgear support.They indicate that a third support employee wants to look forward, remotely via SSH.Unfortunately this is not possible in the short term ...Now I note today. That the disk usage is 49%. And volume light orange indicates ....I have passed it on to Netgear support and hope that with a faster / safer solution.SSH open up to the outside world, I find not safe.I'll let you know about some.Regrads,Miplo90

Hi MiploMy case was passed over to level 3 support last week, I have also set my NAS for SSH so that the engineers may also inspect my configuration and hardware...although to date they haven't logged in yet, which I am surprised about due to the nature of this problem, and its consequences to those that have a ReadyNasDuo V2 and 3TB drives...I am now seriously doubting the units data integrity (until told otherwise) as a reliable backup device and would warn others the same....I will give this another week and if I do not have a satisfactory reply I will return my NAS for a refund as I feel that the unit is not fit for purpose as it currently stands.

Volume scan found and corrected errors...almost every day???

Hi Pimm

Sorry to hear that.....they did the same for me and asked me to return the unit. I received a new unit fairly quickly, of course plus additional postage to me...and that didn't fix the fault.
I think their is a firmware fault on the NAS (5.3.7) itself so maybe hang on a little......I'm sure your fault is identical to mine....are you using XRAID2 with your Western Digital WD30EFRX

What was the version of BIN file they sent you to remedy the situation.

I have just been sent another version and installed it and so far so good, no inode errors anyway!!....Maybe they are waiting for my feedback before they release it

Hi Brinzlee

I have a new NAS received.
The RMA is handled very quickly but the problem has not been solved for me.
I think to, it is a problem in the firmware.

Hi Pimm

Thats a shame.......although as I mentioned earlier its the same thing that happened to me
Would you like me to send you the firmware update they sent me.....I think it has fixed my issue....It might be worth a try.....you install it like an addon
