ReadyNAS Ultra 6 Stuck at READYNAS prompt
After many years of great service I have been having problems logging into my Ultra 6.
Taking the plunge I upgraded to OS6 Which went well. After a couple of days I upgraded the RAM and now it wont boot Even with original Memory Installed. It never gets past the initial READYNAS message on the LCD.
Having read around the subject it seems it is probably a corrupt VPD File.
If a moderator or anyone else could kindly help I would be really grateful.
Many thanks in advance.

Additionally I managed to get it to go into rescue mode and I successfully Telneted in.
After alot of messing about managed to copy vpd file to windows pc and open it in a hex editor 512bytes of zeros.
could anyone help me generate a new one?

Only Netgear can. I'm tagging the mods ( Marc_V and JeraldM ), as they have often helped with this.
