RN104 - keeps freezing after 6.2.3 & 6.2.4 updates #25088243
Hi, I seem to be having the same issue a lot of people are having. I was originally running 6.2.2 and everything was working perfectly. I was prompted on the admin page that a new firmware 6.2.3 w...
Hey,
So 24 hours in and my NAS hasn't missed a beat.
Things that I changed.
Updated to the way version of PLEX (only app I am running). Manually forced a library update of PLEX. I suspect the version of plex I was running may have had a bit to do with the issues I was having but not really sure.
Disabled the default antivirus (not the one in the App Store).
Disabled the power down feature (which I had set up to turn of every day at midnight and back on around 4pm).
Set the spin down feature to stay on but set it to spin the disks down after 10 minutes of inactivity.
Changed the snapshots for my largest folder (videos/movies/TV shows to weekly instead of daily).
I'll post another update in a few days and see.
Oh and also running the latest firmware 6.2.5.
Thanks for the tips guys!

Anyone else figure any fixes for this? I'm still having occasional Crashes (about once per week). Seems to happen when I access the drives, but can't really be sure.
The only way to get out of the crash is to do a hard reboot (power on and off with the power bar, as the buttons on the unti don't respond).
Anyone?
