Generally speaking, there are quite a few posts reporting it after a firmware update (not necessarily 6.9.4). I'm not convinced the update itself is the cause - it's also quite possible that some checking that is done post-update (or even during the reboot) is uncovering a latent issue that was actually there before. Most people only reboot their NAS after an update.
