If no one is connecting anything to the front USB port, that the GREEN error sounds like flakey hardware.
The YELLOW error could be a bad backup switch - unless someone is pressing it with no USB connected. If you set up a dummy backup job (that copies a dummy (empty) share to another dummy on the same NAS, you can then configure the backup button to trigger that dummy job instead. A bit of a nuisance though.
Is the unit still under warranty? If so you might contact Netgear support (on-line would still be free).
