pure performace and connecting losses after update to V 6.4.0 on RN 2120
After automatic update to V 6.4.0 our RN 2120 v2 performace is really pure. SMB-Connections to Windows 7 Clints are not stable and User/Group rights a ignored. We need a fast hotfix for those probl...
Does an OS re-install wipe out the data? I'm having soooo many problems sinc 6.4 than I'm contemplating starting over (and putting Netgear on my blacklist).
netgear support say: "NO data loss on OS-reinstall -> I'll have to try it at night and all difficulties I may will experience, you'll read tomorror!
I have 2 backups (USB an another NAS) -> data loss is not a real problem for me.
best regards

Great, thanks for the input. I managed to cancel the disk balance task that was locking up our unit and now it's working fine apparently.
I also have data backups, data loss is not a real issue, but the time that it would take to re-install and restore all the data is.
How did you managed to cancel the disk balance task that was locking up your unit?
Via SSH. If you have it enabled, you can root into it via ssh and do:
btrfs balance cancel /data
Were /data is the path to your volume.
Mine was completly locked up, so I pulled the plug and restarted. The first thing I did was cancel the balance, waited a while and everything came back online.
