RN102 power led keeps blinking after update to firmware v.6.5.1

Latest firmware would not install so rebooted via Readynas.  System restarts and shows blinking blue power light.  Running latest beta version which was working fine.

  • Your system had a full 4GB root volume, a bad disk and a firmware update history dating back to 6.0.0 even though you only bought it October last year.

    Seeing there was no data on it, hopefully the factory default (wipes all data, settings, everything) just done with just the good disk installed should have resolved the problem. This will give a clean setup on the firmware on the flash (6.6.1 in this case).
