Please Help with a ReadyNAS X6
I'm a tech novice. This is all foreign to me. I have a ReadyNAS X6 (From the box: RNX6-DLS, if that matters) that I haven't touched in about four years. Back then, I vaguely remember RAIDar informe...
Wow, the x6 is a bit touchy...
I was able to get the most recent firmware loaded with one of the disks...but that 2TB disk showed up as having a capacity of 160GB. I added the second one anyway, and t also came up short (but not as bad).
I then did a factory reset to try to wipe the drive and start over, and somehow corrupted the firmware. I rawrite'd the firmware back onto the CF card, manually wiped the partitions of the hard disks from my PC, and then did another factory reset -- which worked.
Hopefully now that it is setup it will stay working!!
Thanks for all the help-
