Hi,
The firmware was probably 6.10.7 as I log in fairly frequently (once every couple of weeks) and did a firmware upgrade not long ago. It would have been reasonably up to date, unless there was a bunch of dot point updates together.

If you have any USB devices connected to the NAS, try again with them removed.
If that doesn't help, then it sounds like the NAS flash memory might have failed or gotten corrupted - that looks like a USB drive to the system. Hopefully corrupted, as the flash isn't something that can be replaced.
You could try the USB recovery again, and see if that resolves it. Use the 6.10.8 firmware on the recovery disk.
