ReadyNAS 424 booting anomalies
I have two ReadyNAS 424 units - 2018 purchase - running 6.10.8. Both have started to show the same anomaly. One I fixed by reinstalling the firmware - the other doesn't respond to the same action. ...
Well I solved it. Three USB drives later I had a good USB install that I used. I waited 'till the second boot started - pressed one of the panel bars (light came on), waited 'till the centre light went off and pressed the button for 30+ secs. Unit acknowledged that USB boot was selected (the first time of happening) - from then on it went according to plan.
Much faster to boot up.
Thanks to all.

NAS boots up from cold.
Starts to go through the cycle - halts before drives spin up - shuts down (with a sigh - fans stopping) - boot restarts - take longer than expected - but completes OK.
Have you looked at the log zip file?
It's possible it is disk related, so you might also try swapping the disks, and see if the problem moves with them (or not).
