That is the second option I outlined. Are you familiar with the linux command line?
No matter what option, the data is at risk, so I am strongly recommending that you back it up before proceeding.
Its ok if incase i lose data as it is a backup device.
Yes i am ok with linux commands.
I am at RAIDar i tried to enable Remote Support and now its shows Status as Remote support.
However i can see a Debug Code 60106.
What you need to do is boot the NAS in tech support mode. Possibly you are already in that - hard to day, as there is also a "Secure diagnostic mode". In any event, instructions are on pages 17-18 here: https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/RN2120/ReadyNAS_OS6_Rackmount_HWM_EN.pdf
From there, you access the NAS with telnet. Personally I use the putty client (on windows) to do that. The username is root, the password is infr8ntdebug
Once in, enter
rnutil chrootwhich will both start raid, and chroot.
I don't recall if you also need to enter this afterwards:
mount /dev/md0 /sysrootOnce in, you can look for large files in the OS partition, as usually there is just one or two that are causing the problem.
Normally the OS partition is 20-25% full.
I am unable to get to login screen from putty using telnet it says connection refused.
I can see a Debug Code 60106 on RAIDar.
Find attached screenshot.
