ReadyNAS 104 randomly disconnects from Mac mini (10.7.5) (AFP and SMB)

Hello, 

 

I updated to 6.4.0 a few weeks ago (from 6.25 i think) but my ReadyNAS 104 won't work properly after the update. It randomly disconnects on SMB and i get the message it doesn't have permission to write while using AFP after which it disconnects. It also froze a couple of times where the only option was unplugging the power cable. I haven't had all these issues before the update. Is there anything i can do, because i haven't been able to use my NAS since. 

 

My RN104 is my only NAS and has 4x 4TB WD Red drives in it. I can't perform a full back-up of those disks. Is there a way where i can put my RN104  back to factory settings without losing all the data on the 4 drives? And if it is not a software issue but a hardware issue, is there a way i can use the 4 disks in a new RN104 without losing all the data on it?

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Greetings Tim

        Im sorry for the communication error. OS 6.4.1 beta 2 did it for me. I can use my Nas again through SMB. AFP still wont work stable, but im really happy i can use SMB. Thank you!
