Ah, I see. Darn, didn't realise that. Would you recommend I use X-Raid on the reset? I chose RAID1 thinking it's a standard format so if my NAS died for some reason it would be easier to get the data off the disks - but maybe this is incorrect thinking?

X-Raid is also recoverable with little tinkering and with Linux PC but has other useful benefits,
Also Sparc units RAID-1 isnt easily recoverable, as they dont use standard Block size.
So both modes actually need extensive Linux knowledge, if dealing with disks which came from Sparc based ReadyNAS.

My Duo has RAIDiator 4.1.10 running. I always update it as soon as a new release is available. Are there simple instructions somewhere on doing a factory reset?

Duo / NV / NV+ / X6/600 To perform an OS Re-install or Factory Default, this is managed via the Reset button on the back of the chassis. Locate the reset pinhole. ReadyNAS X6/600: the pinhole is on the back in the lower left corner. ReadyNAS Duo/NV/NV+: the pinhole is next to the USB port in the back. Get a straightened paper clip and depress the hidden switch in the pinhole while the power is off, and then power on the ReadyNAS. To perform other options such as Skip Volume Check, Tech Support Mode, and Memory Test, this is managed via the Power button. With the system off, hold down the Power button, and wait for the desired LED flashes. Release the Power button when the option you desire is active.
