fsck has taken 6 days so far
Following an abrupt power-off (powercord was unplugged), my ReadyNas NV has been busy doing an fsck for the past 6 days. I'm able to monitor progress by ssh into the box and looking at /var/log/front...
Firstly the NV uses EXT3 not EXT4 (I presume EXT3 would probably support less hardlinks than EXT4). The NV does has an Infrant Sparc CPU which is fairly slow.
An NV would be pretty old. Probably would be a good idea for the OP to upgrade e.g. to a Pro 6 (RNDP6000-200 series) and transfer his/her data across the network. As well as a dual-core 2.6Ghz CPU, it does have nice features like an Online Filesystem Check and Raid Scrubbing that you can schedule which I expect would considerably reduce the likelihood of needing to have a lengthy offline filesystem check.
