ReadyNas Ultra 2 - OS 6.10.7 - Only accesible via DLNA / UPNP
Hi there, I am running a ReadyNas Ultra 2, on the latest OS (6.10.7) and the device has a reserved IP address. As of yesterday, I was able to access the NAS via Windows Explorer / Mac Finder ...

One question, can you help with a command to see the size of the shares in GB below? This will help me to confirm 100% data has been copied.
It won't tie out exactly. The USB drive(s) are formatted differently from the data volume, and the folders themselves will be a different size.
But the du command can be used to roughly check space. For instance, after copying /data/Test to /media/USB_FLASH_2/Test:
root@RN102:~# du -s /data/Test
637060 /data/Test
root@RN102:~# du -s /media/USB_FLASH_2/Test
637076 /media/USB_FLASH_2/Test
root@RN102:~#
Note the 16 kb discrepancy in this example.
You can also confirm the number of files match, by piping ls into wc. For instance,
root@RN102:~# ls /data/Test | wc -l
24
root@RN102:~# ls /media/USB_FLASH_2/Test | wc -l
24
root@RN102:~# ls -as /data/Test

Hi StephenB ,
I had to power down the NAS, to remove one of the disks.
After trying to boot the NAS back on, it appears to be stuck in the boot mode, with the fan running high. I have tried to boot with no disks, disk 1 only and disk 2 only, but to no avail.
Now when I try to SSH in, i get the following error when using 'password' ;
root@192.168.0.115's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
Any idea of possible next steps? I would just like to get back to the stage where I can SSH in and copy data off via USB

It would have been best to complete the backup before manipulating disks. You knew the data was at risk.
What status is RAIDar giving you for the NAS? https://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads#raidar

I had removed one of the disks to run it through R-Studio - this software has found the data, but there are over 50,000 files, which are spread across a many folders and sub-folders. I had hope the data would match the Folder structure on the NAS itself.
RAIDar status is - "System Starting Up"

R-Studio doesn't claim support for BTRFS, so it is rather odd that it is seeing any of your files.
You might reach out to the R-Studio folks via https://forum.r-tt.com/ I believe it is supposed to preserve the folder structure, but there are cases in their forum where that doesn't seem to work.
We could try tech support mode - that is a bit more complicated to get into, and the USB disks likely won't mount automatically. Instructions to boot into that mode are on pages 14-15 here: https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/RNDU2000/ReadyNAS_Ultra_UltraPlus_NVX_Pro_HW_en_8July11.pdf
If it boots into that mode successfully, then you will need more guidance on how to log in, and mount the data volume.
