1)Boot off USB (hold "backUP button" when power ON) with NTGR_DEBUG.txt on flash (but without FW)
2)In RAIDar_6.3.0 i saw that microcode version on my nas is 6.2.4
3)I made a recovery USB flash drive with 6.2.4 FW and (without NTGR_DEBUG.txt) and "boot off USB"
4)A few minutes later the NAS automatically shut down
5)On next boot (normal boot, but with flash drive) NAS done automatic FW restore
6)After i done FW update (with GUI) 6.2.4 >>> 6.2.5 >>> 6.5.2 >>> 6.8.0
Hello mrGarret,
Can you still get to the files? Can you post what RAIDar says about the NAS?
Welcome to the community!
Regards,
No, i cant get data from device, but i have backUP =)
Before updating the firmware on the device was RAID6 on 4HDD.
Is it possible to return the device to work (data loss does not matter)?
I would agree, as a novice if I were to go i nto the GUI and the device tells me there is an update I would expect it to update to something that worked wihtout having to trawl through release notes to realise I must manually go and download an intermediate firmware.
Personally I update regularly and do these checks but a novice would not I am sure!
Also i have "PL2303TA USB TTL RS232" cable.
It can be possible to download the firmware via serial connection to the ReadyNAS?
