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...
Truthfully, you dont know enough about my use case or implementation to give me advice on what should and should not be backed up, but thanks for your input.
Do we have any word from Netgear as to when they might be actually fixing our issues yet?
Still desperatly waiting for a fix as well! Same situation here, I don't have enough free space to backup and proceed to a factory reset.

You can't reset the NAS because you'd lose the data on it and you have no backup. That says to me the data has value, and the only copy is on the NAS.
If I got it wrong, then why not just do the reset?
In my case the NAS is the backup. So how many times do I need to backup my backups? Because I have different generations/versions of my backups, I can't recreate all the backups I have, if I was to do a reset. So should I have a backup, of all the older backups, that are on a RAID 5 drive array? Well that seems silly given the multiple failures that would have to occur for me to need these older generation backups.
So I don't agree with the notion that I should backup my RAID 5 array of backups. I think we should not be so snarky and concentrate on the fact that an update caused this problem and an update would be the proper way to fix it. Not reseting the NAS.

As you wish. When I did the reset the performance problem disappeared (and was faster than the 6.2.x level).
FWIW I maintain three copies of all my data, which means one copy of my PC backups. That goes back to before I had a NAS - I have had backup devices (both USB drives and optical media) fail when I needed them.
