ReadyNas 2120 testing the discs
How do I check the health of teh discs in the NAS? The older ReadyNas 2100 had the ability to check the volumes and fix quotas upon a reboot.

Hello reyf,
To have a quick check on the health of each disk, that will be under System > Volumes then click the setting icon of the current volume's pie graph then click Settings. This will open a window, click Disk on the left panel and this will allow you to select which disk you want to check the info. There is also an option to do disk test from the boot menu and an option to set a schedule of disk test when you click Volume Schedule where it will give you volume maintenance options.
Welcome to the community!

Thank you Jenn. That was got me to where I needed. Are you aware of a defrag option on the ReadyNAS 2100?

If you meant the OS 6 2120: there are 4 maintenance functions - disk test, scrub, btrfs balance, and defrag. All can be scheduled.
If you meant the old OS 4 2100: there is no defrag for that.
