ReadyNAS RNDP2220 Front View Gone
I have an older ReadyNAS which, up until yesterday, has worked flawlessly. I was trying to setup email alert notification and while in FrontView I saw some options for enhancing performance. I se...
Just in case it jogs your memory: the four performance options are
- Enable disk write cache
- Disable full data journaling
- Optimize for OS X
- Enable fast USB disk writes
Often your symptom is triggered by a filling OS partition. This is not the same as the C volume where the shares are placed. It's a small partition (4 GB in your case) on the disks where linux and the frontview application are installed.
If you still have access via File Explorer (or Finder), then the first step is to make a backup of the NAS.
After that, you have a couple options:
- Use paid support at my.netgear.com (ask for per-incident).
- if you are comfortable with linux, you can diagnose and repair a filling OS partition with ssh or tech support mode.
- You can do a factory reset, rebuild the NAS, and then restore the data from your backup.
