ReadyNas Ultra 6 stuck on READYNAS logo
Hi all, hope everyone is well. I was working on my readynas Ultra 6 Pro the other night by scheduling maintenance - Defrag, Balance and Scrub. I has set up the schedule for the 28th of every month a...
Good morning StephenB Sandshark
I re-inserted HDD5 after it passed the HDD test. Then powered on the NAS without HDD6 inserted and it booted up. Everything was normal as in the NAS was not displaying any issues on its display when I was expecting to see a notice of it saying that the system is degraded. So I went on my laptop and logged into the readynas Home Screen.
When. I logged in there was a message at the top but it wasn't a system degrading message. It was a message saying to remove the necessary drives BECAUSE when I clicked on Volumes icon all the drives are RED and it is saying that the NAS is FULL = zero space available.
I wonder if this has anything to do with the initial process it was doing as I am only 90% sure it was completed before the power was interrupted.
Will the NAS recover to normal when I insert a replacement drive into bay 6 ?

No, it will not self-repair when you replace Drive 6. It does appear the death of drive 6 caused a problem on the SATA bus, but did so during a write. So data on one or more other drives is corrupt or out of sync. Hopefully, you can now download the log .zip and StephenB can use that information to better diagnose the specifics of your issue and help you at least get the volume mounted so as to allow you to get your backup up to date before factory defaulting the NAS with a new drive.
