NV+ won't boot - firmware error - USB recovery not working
What HAPPENED BEFORE: ReadyNAS NV+ system would intermittently reset (once every 5 to 15 minutes). To try to correct the issue it was updated to RAIDiator-V4.1.10. System continued the reset issue ...
I'm having the same issue.
An NV+ with the latest firmware. I shutdown the unit, and when it booted, it returned the Bad Firmware error.
Using the latest USB Flash Recovery Image (ReadyNAS_USB_Flash_Recovery-4.1.12.img), I made a USB drive, booted to it, but still received the same error.
You had suggested removing and numbering the drives, inserting a new drive, and do a factory reset.
If I do that and the system functions, would I still have access to my data (4 disks), if I re-inserted them (with the NAS off, of course) ?
