To get the fix for the anti-virus issue you can update to ReadyNASOS 6.5.0-T338 (Beta 2) (or later). Alternatively if you prefer you can stay on 6.4.2 for now and install the hot-fix (which is now available).
Thanks for your patience.

I've never been able to figure out exactly what makes the NAS stop responding on the admin console, but it seemed be in this state most morning after a backup. Only power cycling seemed to free it.
Interesting that the drive format may be involved.
We switch to this NAS last year for ease of drive maintenance (swapping out drives in the RAID array) but I have to say, the effort we've put into keeping this thing working and keeping backups reliable has far outstripped the effort of maintaining the drives embedded in our servers.

if its any help, it was a samsung drive... I also noticed even though the drive was new and formated FAT32 it looked like two drives on the admin panel which concerned me a bit, I am not sure why it did this and don't have a reason either.
I was also only running the inbuilt virus, but I have been told this could be the problem from another user... so have turned off for now, although hope the desktop anti-virus will be enough.
