I need some assistance to confirm what is happening. I have a ReadyNAS Pro Pioneer edition that was running 6.6.0 for a long time with no issues. I recently upgraded to 6.6.1 and it seemed to ha...
Hello flip68,
Can you still get to the boot menu and select Skip Volume Check? Please see if the RAIDar will detect the NAS and its HDDs status. If you can download logs, please do.

Hi JennC, thank you for the reply!
Quick update. 18 hours later it has not passed the 21% mark on the LCD and the still shows a "##>" where the ">" continues to flash.
I launched Raidar 6.2 and it doesnt see the ReadyNAS nor can I ping it or SSH into it. So I'm not sure how to get any logs from it.........
How can I launch the BOOT MENU during this state? or do I have to Power Off the ReadyNAS to get to the BOOT MENU?
You mentioned "Skip the Volume Check", is that what is happening this whole time with the booting and flashing ">"?
Thank you!

Well i finally decided to just power down the NAS and reboot it to the BOOT MENU, I selected SKIP VOLUME CHECK and it booted successfully with no apparent problems.
My files in all my shares appear to be fine and I launched RAIDAR and it shows the following. I clicked diagnostics and got the following below although I'm not sure how to interpret it.
I also downloaded the log files and am not sure how to send them to you for a possible quick review of what might have happened?
Thanks!
/home should be empty, so something is certainly wrong there.
Do you have ssh enabled?
