kmem_cache_alloc+5c Error on Boot, unable to access NAS
Since I cannot find my box in the autofill list above and there is zero filter capability (yea for Netgear!), here is the Model info straight from the back of my NAS: Netgear Advanced Storage Mo...
Thank you to everyone who assisted me with this issue. The factory reset with a single drive was successful and since I had completed the full back up of the data I went ahead with the factory reset with all four drives inserted. The rebuild took about 2 days but once completed the drive was available and ready for use. I transferred the 3TB's back to the drive and have now been accessing it again as normal prior to this outage. I can also confirm that my default/base/factory set version was 6.5.1 so no extra effort needed there.
After this completely avoidable debacle, I cannot imagine every allowing another firmware update due to Netgear is using this as a way to suck you in and pay for support... :(
I will be setting this issue to resolved. Thank you again everyone!!!
What firmware are you running? Do you have snapshots enabled?
