ReadyNAS 4220 Locking up RAID 10 and ISCSI

Hi We got a 4220 as a big storage box with decent perf to go with an HP 3par in our 3 node Windows server cluster. It is running over ISCSI. We bought a Netgear M7100-24X 10GB switch to go with it....

Sorry, forgot to mention we are using thick LUN's.

We are running 6.2.4, I see here: http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/29938 that 6.4.0 is released, is that a final release now? Should I try that to address any BTRFS and ISCSI issues that are fixed according to the changelog?

    Cool, thanks. I have installed it this morning and provisioned a new 8TB iscsi lun on my freshly build RAID 10 volume. It has got a few VM's on it. Now we wait...
