ReadyNAS LED patterns

- Sep 11, 2008Until I post the FAQ, here is the info for reference:
LED blink behavior for 2 disk systems is three quick blinks of all disk LEDs and the backup LED, followed by an 1s delay, followed by a number of slow blinks. The number of slow blinks will be the error code.
Current error codes:
1 - Vendor mismatch
2 - No disks detected
3 - Bad contents on root partition of disks
4 - Flash error
5 - Unsupported RAID configuration

I have a Rev. A ReadyNAS 600 which started giving me the solid LED 1&3 corrupt RAIDiator image error. I successfully transferred the RAIDiator image using TFTP, but when it finishes downloading it gives a light indication which isn't on the list. The ReadyNAS flashes all four LEDs and then the 1&3 LED in alternation. Holding down the power button shuts the device down. But if I try and do an OS reinstall or even a factory-default, then it complains again with LEDs 1&3 on solid. What is the meaning of the alternating 4 LED with 1&3 LED pattern? In both cases the power LED is slow blinking. Is my flash memory dead?
