Readynas 104 drops out when copying to it
I have a readynas 104 configured with four 4tb drives in raid 5. I've managed to copy about 6tb onto the device without issue but now whenever I go to copy something onto the box, lets say a single 4...

Just to be clear ...
You do not need to "Factory Default" on every upgrade, moving forward. If you had the issue that causes some 104 systems to become unresponsive in 6.1.4 and below, then you just need to "Factory Default" the system once after you have installed 6.1.5 or newer for the first time. The future updates, such as 6.1.6 will not require you to "Factory Default" the system if you have done that once already on 6.1.5
Similarly, if the system you have is 6.1.5 or newer from the factory then you will not need to default the system to get benefits from 6.1.6 or future releases that have performance optimization.
Lastly, for customers that upgrade from 6.1.4 and below that haven't experienced any issues, you do not need to "Factory Default" the system at all. Newer firmware revisions such as 6.1.5 and 6.1.6 beta have optimizations and fixes that don't require any special steps after updating.
(Note: Factory Default will wipe existing data on your ReadyNAS)
