Failed FrontView backup, how to fix?

Disks do appear to be fine. I guess if you can successfully backup your data somewhere else you may wish to afterwards try reformatting the USB disk and do a fresh backup to that. Also your NAS was last factory reset back in 2010. If you can make an up to date backup, do a factory default (wipes all data, settings, everything) and restore your data from backup that could be useful. There have been a number of filesystem improvements since 4.2.11

I've backed up and deleted the CCC problem directory from the Pro NAS source. Will run the share backup again tonight and see if it succeeds this time. If it does, then I'll try again after restoring the CCC directory from the backup. Hopefully this will help isolate the source of the problem.

This is probably a good time to get a new 5TB USB HD and just backup the whole C volume. I could then do a Factory Default as you suggest.

This system is actually overdue for a completely new set of upgraded disks as the current 4x2TB set has been running 24/7 since 2010. This is the second of two systems you generously helped my LA partners and I with last January.

The LA system is working well. Mine is in SF and I finally have some funds to buy new disks and a back-up NAS (I'm considering the 314 for longevity rather than a 104). A couple questions re: the current state of 0S6 -

• Will OS6 support greater than 16TB volumes on the 314, either not or in the future?
• What are the current thoughts on OS6 on unsupported legacy hardware like the Pro 6? I've read as much as I can in the forum but am still a bit confused. Since this NAS is used for production, I want to be sure it will be safe.

Any serious downsides at this point? Have the fan/temperature control/UI issues been solved? Any other considerations I should be aware of if I want to go OS6 on the new disk set?

Thanks again,
