I understand that the problem has now been fixed by support.
Yes, you should update the firmware. On the latest firmware (6.5.1), the NAS will automatically try to repair the problem if it runs into the issue your system ran into.
Note that the issue you ran into is one problem that has the symptom of failing to complete booting and giving the "Retry Startup" error.
There are some general tips on updating the firmware: http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/30033/~/readynas-os-6%3A-firmware-upgrade-guide-and-tips
The display still is showing Retry Startup. When I connect directly to the drive from the PC I do get a connection but it shows (still shows) off line busy. So even though I have a direct connection I can not get passed the busy indication from ReadyNAS. I have about exhausted the things I know to do open to suggestion but I need some help. Once again I did reload the OS from the firmware and logon and password are at the default settings.
The drive shows Retry Startup. ReadyNAS shows drive is busy.
RAIDar connect now with IP 169.254.202.73
Is there any other opations or do I need to call Support?
