Just upgraded to 6.7.0....
And the NAS is stuck at 99% booting up, If there are any Beta testers about, Just wondering if this is normal due to the significant changes in the firmware, or if it's borked for the second time in ...

Okay - I'll go for that .... downloaded.
The documentation does not seem to indicate whether I upload the 'Zip', or the contents.
I suspect the contents, but as this is first time using the 'load yourself' facility, better to be sure.
Other systems I have used require a zip file for uploading and unzip in situ.
So just to be clear which is it please?

You do need to unzip it.

Thanks ... unzipped and now running 6.7.1, and upgrade was relatively quick and easy.
Just 2 things of note
1. On Windows 10 Edge (fully uptodate).
When opening the image file, ReadyNAS closes the window and logs me out.
After 3 attempts including a re-boot of Win 10, I have a bright idea and use Chrome (not my favourite browser) and it works.I mention this so that others might be ware of it and can take similar actions.
2. I missed the fact that a Scrub had started last night (listed in the logs and I did not check), so the ReadyNAS was rebooted (required for upgrade) in the middle of the Scrub.
So is it likely that the Scrub is going to restart (or we know for certain that it won't) and if so how can I tell if it is running?

You should see the scrub progress on the volume page. If not, assume it is not running (and will not restart).

Edge is giving path+filename to the NAS, and I believe the NAS is only expecting to see filename.

Thanks ... NOT Running, as I suspected.
