Disaster on a readynas 314 - need advice please
Going to simplify this - essentially this is all because of the 6.9.2 update causing NAS to not boot up after update. Not happy. I had 2 x 3TB drives as RAID1 in a 4 bay NAS. I installed a new 3TB...
Let me know your case number and I can arrange for your case to be reviewed.
No. Re-installing the OS only helps in some rare cases where installing the OS over the top of itself and/or resetting some network settings and the admin password would resolve a problem.
Thanks MDGM.
I ended up finding out the original order of the 3 drives (support told me this was important), I didnt know. Put the drives back in and boot menu'ed (with extreme difficulity), finally getting it to boot the original degraded RAID5 volume. I let it resync, and it worked.
I am now in the process of copying a million+ files onto the new HDD to make a backup (so not out of the woods yet).
The only issue I had now was I tried to copy a 1TB folder using the web interface (which seems to be buggy) and while it was copying I was trying to change a different shares name where it errored. I had to restart the NAS.
Anyway I have lost two shares now off the original RAID5 volume. They have just disapearred but the data usage is still there in the volume information. I cannot access via web interface or my windows mapping. Any ideas?
Seeing you're working with support it's probably best to continue working with them.
