ReadyNas OS 6.6.0 upgrade failed and break NAS

Ok I have found a solution.
I retried to update the firmware with an USB drive.
I've used another one than yesteday (yesteday USB3 16 Gio, today USB2 2 Gio) and it seems to work with this one. Not with the firmware 6.6.0 but I also tried with the 6.5.2 one and IT WORKS.
It seems that the update 6.6.0 has been never applied and an update to the 6.5.2 was taken in account.
I've retrieved my NAS, my data and my configuration without lost.
Regards
Mod note: one shouldn't downgrade from 6.6.0 to 6.5.2 but if the upgrade to 6.6.0 never happened then doing what ncante might be O.K.

I had the same thing happen to me today. I have a ReadyNas104, do regular updates, the last one was very recently. Was running 6.5.2 when it asked my today to update to 6.6.0.
Started as usual, but then I got the do_exit+8ec screen on the LED and it hung there forever.
I'm trying to follow suggestions here to return to 6.5.2 but I can't get any USB drive to work. It keeps saying USB boot failed!
All the drives are Fat32 formatted. Wondering is there any specific allocation unit size I should set the drive to? Is that why it doesn't work?
I really need help since I can't access any of my info!
Thanks

Hello,
I had the same problem, and hopefully the usb recover worked perfectly.
But I'm wondering if you retried to update to 6.6.0 after, or if you know why the update failed ?
