ReadyNas 424 offline
Hi you All, I have a NAS 424 with version 6.10.2 and attached a HDD with 6TB to copy all data (4TB) more than 24 hours ago. Now the Nas is not reachable via IP adress (even ping does not work...

After a few hours I tried a few next attempts with RAIDar but unsuccessful.
I then did a forced shutdown and a standard power on.
After booting the NAS was reachable and the last entrance on log file showed only that the backup was started.
I now reformated the USB HDD and restarted the backup by copiing the folders one by one.
I suppose that the backup process was interrupted by the start of other automated backups.
Issue solved.

Ath the beginning I was not able to access the HDD (it was formated exFAT) then I reformated it as NTFS and was able that the NAS was able to recognize it.
I connected the USB HDD to the nas and did what the help page told me:
https://kb.netgear.com/29654/How-do-I-back-up-data-from-my-ReadyNAS-OS-6-system-to-a-USB-disk.
(I have chosen EXT4 as file system and Data (everything what is on the NAS (4.7 TB)).
since then the performance went down (to acces the nas from a pc) and then it went offline and still remains offline.
