File Move/Copy Leads to Lockup
Hi - Thanks to support on the forums, my ReadyNAS 102 is working pretty well now. However, I am migrating all data from a DLINK device, which has performed well, and running into problems. ...
Can you try setting up a backup job on the RN102 to copy the data directly from the DLINK (avoiding hauling it over the DLINK->PC->RN102 road).
Yes, this is how I originally did it last night. I first used a backup job to copy the data from dlink nas to netgear nas.
Once data was there, I had wanted to use DLNA for my smart TV from nero (seems better than netgear's built in offering), and I installed the app. I then went back to my PC...and mapped the data root folder of the NAS using admin credentials in windows. I navigated to a few folders and started cutting and pasting folders to the appropriate media shares.
in doing so, most worked ok (which did not at first - before I did the factory reset), but a smaller folder seemed to hang up the NAS today.
I can't even get to admin page... I will have to reboot it later from the house. Something is wrong though for this to keep happening.
Got it. The issue is not related to the dlink, you are reorganizing files on the ReadyNAS.
I'd double-check the disk health via the SMART stats (just in case).
That was my first thought, health is fine though. They are essentially new drives, used only a few times over a 1 month period.
I think there is a service or something hanging, but I don't know which log file would tell me this, as there are several.
Just seems very odd...
Does it work better if you select, right-click, and then choose "move" instead of doing the cut/paste?
