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:

- Good. Keep us updated on the progress.
- Still working normally - been up for 31 hours so far
- I can also confirm that T1721 seems more stable than any of the previous 6.2.x versions. My NAS has been up for about 25-26 hours as per now..
- How did you guys get the update to load? My device locks within seconds of restart? Thanks for any help.
- 50 hours and still looking good on T1721
- Happy for you redhot. :)
I also tried the T1721 but still no go, locks up within a couple of hours, or less if I put some load on it. :(
EDIT: Ok, so I tried switching out the WD Green I was using to test the firmware with since it's not on the list. Tried with a Samsung I had lying around but that resulted in the same lockup 30-40 min into a copy and 60-90 min when idle. - sparhawk765 can you send a fresh set of logs? Sounds like your unit is probably locking up for a different reason to most others in this thread.
Your report is the first I've seen of any lockups on T1721. - Logs sent, ref. to your above post.
- Still alive and kicking on T1721, 48 hours :)
- T1721 is looking the goods so far. This is the longest my RN104 has been up since going to 6.2+
