After Ready NAS OS 6.4.2 update backup destination type no longer exists
I was consistently getting backups to external USB drive. May 6 performed the 6.4.2 update. Have discovered no longer getting backups of NAS to USB. Backup fails due to destination type "no longer exists". I was previously known as USB_HDD_001 but now recognized as USB_HDD_002. Admittedly I did not remove the USB drive before the update, but I never have during previous updates which have gone well. I was not able to get originally scheduled backup to re-attain the 001 drive. My only solution was to create a new backup to the recognized drive of USB_HDD_002. Will see if it works.
If I have done something in error, someone please let me know. I was planning on performing the update to 6.5.0 this week, but am now a bit gun-shy.
Hi Hardhat,
6.5.0 has positive feedback about backup jobs. Just ensure that you will read the 6.5.0 Firmware release notes and some important reminders about ReadyCLOUD.
