ReadyNAS Ultra 2 Plus Won't Boot
Hi All, I have the above machine for home use (about 3 yrs old) + offsite backup from my office RN312. All has been working sweetly for a couple of years with no dramas to speak of. A few day...
Hello DaveSh,
Thanks for the response.
If you want to switch to XRAID2, make sure you have full back up of the files if you can still access the volume as it requires factory reset.
As for the warranty, you may need to contact support center for hardware check. I checked your profile and found one RN312 registered that still has warranty.

Hello DaveSh,
How about under Home where it shows a summarize info of your NAS? It should show XRAID2 if you have configured it as XRAID2. What's the current FW version of your NAS?
XRAID2 allows you to expand volume without reformatting your disks. Expansion with FlexRAID is available for 4-bay NAS and up, see expanding ReadyNAS Volume when in FlexRAID.

Thanks JennC,
The home dialog box only shows raid1; nothing about either FlexRAID or XRAID2, so I assume it is FlexRAID. It may not matter much anyway as I have since discovered a low voltage warning in the logs which has been going on for a while. So I'm considering maybe warranty (expired but problem started well before that) or a new unit.
Thanks,
DaveSh.
