ReadyNas 6.2 (NAS locks up entirely)
EDIT BY MODERATOR: Please see the post at the end of the thread: http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=456217#p456217
I guess i am not the only one this is happening to!
everything worked fine for 6.1.9 (except for my root at 99% problem last month)
once I updated, I transferred aprox 2 gigs of information it locks up every time
all apps are working fine.
as a business owner i have come to the conclusion (with the amount of problems i have been having) ReadyNas is not meant for a reliable means of backing up seems majority of the fixes are "back everything up and factory reset!" I think that answer is as good as telling someone with computer problems to hit there computer a few times and see if it works.
now i have gone to support many times yes they are quite helpful but only within 90 days of purchase of the unit! then they insist that i pay for a extension of that support.... i have 3 IBM servers and when there hardware fails (one little problem with a driver one year later) they back up the reseller in making sure my system is back up and running within 48 hours (no they are not leased or have a protection plan)
If it wasent for the guys in the forums i would have beaten the system with a bat (please see Office space the movie)... sorry for the rant just truly frustrated with the system :evil:

T1721 can still be found here: http://www.readynas.com/download/beta/r ... 21-arm.img- Argh !!
never mind .... I have 1751 on and the darned thing won't stay up long enough to update the firmware back to 1721 :-(
Any suggestions ? - Thanks Stephen B ....... but 1751 seems to be a killer :-(
- thanks to mdgm for the usb procedure ...... i'm now on 1721 and will advise if it stays up.
cheers....
Mark - So far so good ...... in a similar vein to earlier posters T1721 has not locked up for 12 hours.
Will advise but that is much better than the few minutes I was getting with 1751.
Thanks Again mdgm - Darn it !!!
2 days .... 2 freezes ....
so 1721 is vastly more stable than 1751 but the issue still is not solved :-( - Hi
It seems I have a similar problem as flinders. The RN 104 is stuck in "booting...", after I've tried to update to Beta9.
No Factory Reset or OS-Reinstall. Memory test still works though and passes successfully.
Already swapped out disks with empty ones...
Any hint how to get the USB recovery to work would be highly appreciated ...
Thanks a lot - Now with the 1721, my NAS freeze once per day... First boot it was after 3 days. It happens with no visible activity on the NAS. It has never happens with the 6.1.9, latest rock solid ReadyNasOS for my RN104.
I hope you will find a solution, guys.
