ReadyNAS Ultra 4+ silently shut down
My Ultra4+ is runing RAIDiator 4.2.20. This morning I woke up to my NVR disk alarm going off. It turns out that the NAS had silently shut down sometime over night. I powered it back up and it boot...
Note - title should read "ReadyNAS Ultra 4+ silenty shut down", but the edit time expired before I could change it. Not sure how/why I typed 104...maybe the mods can change the title?
You can send in your logs if you like.
Btw 4.2.20 is nearly 4 and a half years old. The latest firmware is 4.2.30.
Logs sent. If there's nothing telling there I can upgade to the latest. Was actually considering going to the OS6 hack until this morning... :)
I can't see a reason for the crash in the logs either.
You could go to OS6 if you want.
First step would be to backup your data and verify that that is good.
The ST3000DM001 disks do have very high failure rates. I'd recommend switching to another disk model if possible e.g. WD RED or SeaGate NAS.So far (at least 4 years) ive been luck with these drives. But part of this project is migrating to 4TB WD Purple drives once I've backed up fully. Since I also want to move to OS6, is there a suggested order that I should complete the volume expansion, factory default, data restore and OS6 upgrade tasks?
