Readynas 102 restarts services constantly - unable to access data.
My ReadyNas 102 running firmware 6.7.4, seems to be constantly restarting services. I'm sometimes able to see the shares... sometimes even get a few files..., but then it "disappears" and the network location is gone. ... until a minute or so later.
Even the web-ui ... I'm sometimes able to see the status-screen before it jumps back into a loading-page waiting for the ui to become responsive again.
I've tried reinstalling the OS, but it didn't work. I was thinking about flashing new firmware, but that requires the services to be open long enough for the process to finish....
Is it possible to connect the drive to a computer - windows or linux... and get the data through USB? The drive seems to be ok, although; It's the remains of a degraded RAID-1 setup.
Thanks for all advice..
You do need mdadm installed. Something like
# apt-get update
# apt-get install mdadm btrfs-tools
# mdadm --assemble --scan
# cat /proc/mdstat
# mount -t btrfs -o ro /dev/md127 /mnt

Upgraded to 6.8.0 by changing to a formatted drive, but when switching back to the disk where I have my data - the problem still remains...
I guess the best solution would to retrieve data through docking the drive in a USB->Sata adapter and get the data - but how?

Some users have had good luck with ReclaiMe. You can see what it can recover before purchase. Netgear of course also offers data recovery ( https://kb.netgear.com/69/ReadyNAS-Data-Recovery-Diagnostics-Scope-of-Service ).
If you get a linux "live" boot disk, you could boot up under linux, install btrfs, and try and mount the drive.
I've got a laptop running linux (Ubuntu), but was unable to mount using "mount -t btrfs -o ro /xxx/yyy /mnt". I'm not that into linux, but shouldn't that be sufficient if btrfs is installed? .. or is there some raid-stuff that needs to be accounted for?
Again - the drive seemed ok. but the ReadyNas 102 just drops its services (except icmp) over and over and over again...
