Hello geoffcooper,

That is not good then. Unfortunately, you may really need to get to support center, they may be able to fix this from the backend. Through support center they have L3 who remotes in to the NAS and fix it via Telnet. I checked your case submission and found that it is empty and there is no serial number registered, it needs serial number. Also, per incident support contract is needed for them to proceed.

Hello,

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried to boot with Skip Volume Check but still do not proceed beyond 'booting' and the device is not seen in RAIDar. To clarify what happened so far:

- There was a backup that failed last night

- I opened the web interface and clicked 'Download All Logs'

- Nothing was downloaded and the device became unaccessible at that point

- I tried OS Reinstall but this didn't help (obviously)

- I found the following thread and this looks exactly like my problem: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/ReadyNas-Pro-6-stuck-quot-Booting-quot-after-log-download/td-p/864983

Please advise.

Thanks,

Geoff

PS. I have logged a case #26681866 but not phoned up support yet.

Hello,

Thanks for the info - I guessed that might be the case so will give them a call... I'm surprised the details are not associated with that case number. I got the number after submitting those details on a web form - anyway, I'm sure I can sort it over the phone with whoever I get through to...

Cheers,

Geoff
