ReadyNAS OS6 issues with Ultra 4
Hi All,
I'm having trouble with OS6 on latest OS6 firmware and wondering if somebody saw similar issues.
I have Ultra4 with 4x4TB WD Reds. I had no issues on OS4.
Upgrade to latest version went well, but tests showed that data got corrupted (I would copy 200k / 2TB files and than compare md5sums). I tried factory reset and rebuild volume but it didn't help. tried to turn x-RAID off / remove quote experemt with different protocols to transfer (AFP, NFS, rsync) but all results are consistent
After 2 days of reboots/stress testing it finally gave up with kernel crash

So it looks like there's some compatibility issue. I ordered new memory module to see if it could be the problem but ti's highly unlikely.
I tried to downgrade to 6.9.3 and it's more stable, but after 1+day of stress testing it also gave up and netgear daemon stoped working. I was able to ssh into the box, there were not kernel crashed but the daemoung has crashed with segfault on restart.
After reboot, system went through initialization and I got to the wizard.
So from my side I have 2 questions, does anyone run legacy model pro4/6 ultra4/6 with WD REDs on OS6 ? if yes what version.
second is how to downgrade back to OS4 ? I found couple link on this forum but all of them are dead

I'm sure that a lot of people do.
On the memory - did you try running the diagnostic from the boot menu?

<p>I didn't run memtest, was planning to upgrade memory anyway. </p>
<p>Do you now where did http://netgear.nas-central.org/wiki/Convert_RAIDiator_to_ReadyNASOS go ?</p>

The files themselves were maintained by mdgm and were hosted on a Netgear server, but that folder was deleted when he left at the end of August. Hopefully the new links will keep working.
