Slow share performance on my RN 104 since upgrading to 6.4.0
I upgraded to 6.4.0 two days ago, obviously now wishing I'd checked the forums first as my ReadyNAS was running fine on 6.2.5, but didn't think they'd send out such a poor release. Anyhow, I've s...
Ack, I spoke too soon about my ReadyNAS not locking up.
I was copying a file to it just now, and the copy failed. Can't connect to the shares now, nor the web UI, the LCD doesn't come on if I press the power button, and even if I hold down the power button, the unit doesn't shut down.
This is a terrible user experience and is definitely making me regret recommending ReadyNAS to family and friends; I hope they don't experience similar problems and I'm certainly not recommending it any further until Netgear can at least hold their hands up and say "yes, there's a problem, and yes we're working on it, hold tight, sorry".
I fixed the problem for me now.
The Downgrade worked for me.
Backup all data, Downgrade to 6.40. beta 1 ( hXXp://www.readynas.com/download/beta/readynasos/6.4.0/ReadyNASOS-6.4.0-T112-x86_64.img )
and Then downgrade to 6.2.X, then factory reset
thank you all.
My problems are all fixed now. I'll never run any update so quickly again. Never touch a running system.
My DVBLINK and OwnCloud app is working fine now, too.
+1 for seeing issues with poor transfer performance since upgrade to 6.4.0 (most noticeable on my RN312 - I don't have a RN104, but thought it worth me adding my experineces to this post). Sometimes connection just drops on my Gb LAN with my Win7 clients using SMB, causing copy fails. Not in a business critical environment, but annoying (and surprising) just the same. Hoping the next release will sort the issue....; )
