Help Please
I had been using the readynas with 250Gb drives a number of years ago and upgraded to a windows server with 12x1Tb drives. I came back to the RNR4000 a month ago seeing what the maximum drive size it...

Mar 09, 2017To find out whether your new disks are the root cause for your issue I would go the painful way to setup the nas with one of the old 250GB disk only.
Should you get the same bad behaviour right at the beginning of that process I would assume there is something wrong with the nas, but not with the disks.
You might then reconsider what to do with that old buddy.
Assumed you will be successful with the 250GB disk you can start adding/replacing the new disks one-by-one and see how it goes.

aye, thank you, but its doing the same thing with or without disks, getting to the end of the successful memory check but just wont powercycle from the power button on the front. sadly I don't have any of the original 250gb drives, I send those to be degaussed.

Sorry to hear that, I would perceive that as a strong hint, that your old companion passed away and suggest you let go.
