Overview now shows USB HDD system VFAT partition

Question

Dear Commnity,&nbsp;I have the same issue as Andrew86:https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/Overview-now-shows-USB-HDD-system-VFAT-partition-after-6-4-0/td-p/992389&nbsp;I want to backup my NAS on the USB HDD and it isn't possible because the NAS will always copy to the small partition (VFAT). I have already tried with "eject" or change the target but without success.&nbsp;Do You have any suggestions that can me help?&nbsp;I have: RN104 (4 x 4 TB)Firmware: 6.4.2USB-HDD: 5 TB

Hi,&nbsp;I have downloaded the ARM Version and started the upload. Unfortunately after a few seconds &nbsp;the windows closes without any info. So I can't it check :-(

I have found in logs:"Volume: System volume root's usage is 100%. This condition should not occur in normal conditions. Contact technical support"&nbsp;Perhaps is it the reason why I can't install the new firmware?Btw. I have 3.90 TB free on my NAS

Btw. I have 3.90 TB free on my NAS

Yes. &nbsp;The root partition is a 4 GB (not TB) partition that holds the NAS operating system (and which the NAS boots from). &nbsp;It's not the same as your data volume.
