Okey, i will reboot the nas now that it has the correct backup USB disk attached, and hope that saturdays full backup job runs without any problems .

Hi at all,
with reboot it works for the moment.
Hopefully the fix will be releasd soon, because we had to boot the system everyday.
Thanks for the informations :-)

- it-tudeNov 08, 2016AspirantHiI have done a reboot after attaching the backup disk, and the nas still hangs while backning up, very frustating , when will there be a fix for this ?

Yes, I am hoping that a fix will be release as soon as possible as well.
The concern that you have is actually a bit different from what the thread is reporting. Your ReadyNAS hangs during back-up.
The initial thread is actually about the USB not being detected. No mention of the NAS hanging. So there is a possibility that your case needs a few more isolation.
I would like to clarify or have the following be checked also:
1. Can your ReadyNAS detect your USB at all times?
2. Have you tried re-creating the back-up jobs?
3. Are there any back-up job logs that you can get?
4. Please try sending your system logs as well.
How do I send all logs to ReadyNAS Community moderators?
Also, it might be best if you register your ReadyNAS to verify support warranty.
Regards,
