New NV+ stuck at Booting....
Hi I have just got a new NV+ (well 2nd hand but new to me!) that came without any disks and have added 3 X 2TB disks to it. I have switched it on, can see it in Raidar and that and the front panel ...

Hi Folks
Similar problems here
In a nutshell my readynas nv+ has become unresponsive
It has 4 2tb discs running fine for years on the hcl list
and I have about 2+ TB of pics, movies, music on it
I recently got on the backup kick and starting running cobiansoft backup (free windows client) on my win7 pc to 3TB external drives connected to pc
I mucked around with that for a few weeks pumping large amounts of data over the home network (wired),
Everyone once in a while the nas would disappear from my home network (in windows) but this was normal
It recently became unresponsive (press front power button 1x or 2x, press and hold front pwr button, etc)
So I pulled the plug on it and plugged it back in (This was on Sun morn, now it's Tue eve)
The lcd said something about checking or syncing (I dont remember what it said)
Right All 4 lights are lit up (nothing flashing)
Right now if front buttons are unresponsive (ie the front lcd doesnt light up)
I can see the ip from the admin screen from my router (as a dhcp client)
I can ping it from the command line
Raidar 4.1.7? can see it
The volume green light is flashing and if I hover over it, it shows this screenshot, 15% etc
I cannot view it's admin page (I used to be able to)
I cannot do \\nas or \\192.168.0.249 from windows start run (i used to)
My mapped network drives are disconnected
It's as if it's stuck or busy resyncing
Other that waiting to see if the percentage of resync increases, prob 2 weeks at this rate, what else can I do?
Thanks
