ReadyNAS Ultra 2 plus Corrupt root

Arafel.
The data wasn't the problem since I managed to recover that. Just can't get the damn thing to reinstall.
For the data I used UFS explorer pro to reform the raid on my windows machine and then copied the data that i required. Reclaime also works well and is cheaper and also easier to use.

Sorry. They both cost the same it seems. There are also quite a few posts online about using a linux machine to mount the drives. You can try and chek those out too.

I am having the same issue, my ultra 2 no longer will boot after the latest firmware update.  I'm afraid I have lost all the data on it unfortunately.

The problem here is more complicated than that.  Can you start a new thread on your problem?  It gets too confusing when multiple folks with similar (or even identical) problems are active on the same thread - basically it's too hard to track who has tried what.

R-Linux for windows is free, and should handle RAID-1 ( http://www.r-tt.com/free_linux_recovery/ ).  It won't do btrfs, but ext is used in 4.2.x firmware.

 

You can also try paid (per-incident) support at my.netgear.com.  Generally these issues are related to the OS partition, and not the data.  Support can generally repair the OS partition.
