Contact support
Hi
I contacted Netgear Support : they solved my problems on RN516 since 6.4.0 update. :)
Then do the same contact them :)
Glad it worked out for you.
But, what did they do to fix your box.

Lots of people with this issue but nobody posting how the problem is resolved.
Worried that I will lose a chunk of my data as it started doing this half way through my weekly backup.
Hi all
I didn't see what support done but it was an issue for me root folder more 90% and also corrupt config
Then clean all of them and I needed to config again services and backup but never loose data ;)
Update:
Overnight the NAS seemed to complete the reprocess of the snapshots and the NAS let me access it fully this morning. I have since removed all existing snapshots and stopped any new ones from being created.
Looking at the logs, the event that keeps repeating for the time period that the NAS was unusable is related to reprocessing of the snapshots so it looks like any other request to the NAS be it for data access, admin access or even for it to reboot was ignored due to the overloaded work that the firware update had started. Now that work is finished the NAS seems to be usable again.
The only advice I can give to others with the same issue is to try and remove any existing snapshots, stop new ones being created and leave the NAS on 24/7 until it becomes stable.
