Readynas Pro stuck on boot

New development.
I recieved the new Cpu today, didn´t make any difference.
Tried something new.
Booted up the system with just one disk (empty disk, not part of the array) and was able to get to the boot menu.
Tried to perform a "reinstall OS" didn´t work.
Then did a memory test still with the just one disk, it did 2 passes and no errors.
Then started up the system without disk 1 and 5 and holy marshmellows, it booted, happiness is at hand;-)
I´m backing up everything on the Nas right now, so wont touch anything until it´s done.
The reason for emitting disk 1 and 5 is that I used tray 1 for the "try and see if this works" disk.
Disk 5 had shown a large amount of reallocated bad sector counts.
Could this be it??
That disk 5 was the fault?

Probably.

A good step in troubleshooting an issue like this would be to hook the disks up to a SATA port in a PC one at a time and check them.

though if it's a faster one than an old one you may see a performance benefit, so it was probably still worth installing it.

It´s the same Cpu that was in the Nas from the start (Intel E2160 Dual Core 1.8ghz)
Right now I´m backing up all the important data on the Nas to other drives.
This takes a while so I want to get this done with first.
Next step is to re-insert disk 1.
A bit hesitant, the unit has been "dead" for well over a week and all of a sudden working.
So a bit afraid that when I turn it off and put in disk 1 it will revert to the nonworking status.

Yes, finish backing up your data first.

Put disk 1 back in while the NAS is on. If the disk is good it should be wiped and added to your array

Turned off the nas, reinserted disk 1.
It powered up but didn´t seem to see the "new" disk, still said Volume C is unprotected.
Next, put in the disk while the system was up, now it is resyncing volume.
Hoping this means the system will again be redundant when it finishes

After resyncing volume with disk 1 the nas seams to be working fine again.
To some degree.
Volume C is now i degraded mode (due to the missing disk 5)
But at least it is booting up every time now.
The first few days after resyncing it was showing some weird behavior though.
Boot-up time was a lot slower than normal and Frontview showed several of the disks as beeing dead and Volume C as empyt, but I was still able to access the files on the Nas.
That seams to have "gone away" by itself now, and the only thing is the display showing "Vol C degraded"
I spec when I put in a new disk 5 (waiting for mr. postman) that problem will be solved..

Then when the Nas working, up comes another thing.
Short story.
I´ve recently purchased a new router (Netgear r6300) and a wifi ac bridge (Linksys wumc710)
When hooking up the Readynas to the r6300 via the wumc710 I only get transfer rates at max 8MB/s.
That´s not very impressive, and even with the bridge located within 10 feet of the router.
What am I doing wrong?
I´ve set the MTU on the Readynas and the r6300 to 1500.

I know this is a bit off topic, but still involving equipment, and hoping someone would have a solution for this??
