Hi,

Thanks for responding, i've added screen shots of when EDA1 is successful mounted. When not, the eda1 volume is shown in red and the only option from that screen is to format the drives. As I said, a reboot fixes this. Since posting, I have had 1 occasion where the eda1 volume is unavailable after a manual boot.

Also, I only get the RESYNC to ONLINE messages when there is an issue.

Hope you can help.

Will add a screen shot when it fails again if that helps.

Regards,

Kevin.

Hello kevcompton,

I checked your profile and found that you have several legacy ReadyNAS units. This ReadyNAS 516 is not yet registered, this should have free support.

I think your case is for L3 escalation, please contact support center.

Thanks.

I recently updated the firmware to the latest beta and the issue hasn't happened again.
If it does, I will contact support.

  Hello kevcompton,
  
  In case BETA resolves the issue, please let us know. You may also post it at ReadyNAS OS6 BETA release board.

    I'm experiencing the same issue with my EDA500. My readynas also sometimes just gets stuck saying booting and I have to power both the nas and expansion chassis off completely and then when I power on again they are fine.
    
    I have a 314 and this happens about once a week. I am on OS 6.4.1.
