RN104 crashed and stuck at "booting" or "Updating"[FW 6.2.2]
ReadyNAS RN104 – 5 months old, so now out of 90 day warranty 2x 3TB Seagate ST3000VN000 in XRAID2 mode. Though the 90 day phone/chat support has expired, there is an email support ticket (# 24562661...

Hi mdgm,
I have same issue.
yesterday I started it up and did the firmware update, and reboot. then it stuck at "booting" or "Updating FW'.
I did not remove any applications.
What I tried:
Removing the original disks, and replacing with a new single disk.
performing a factory default it sticks at “booting Updating FW”.
Enter boot menu and initiate OS reinstall. Unit sticks at “Updating FW”.
Enter tech support mode. Unit starts and displays Debugmode [xxxxx] and its ip address. Unit is not detected by Raidar
Suggestions please?
Thanks
Hi all,
I´m having the exact same problem as Wayne. Since updating 6.2.2->6.2.4 yesterday my RN104 with 4 3TB RED discs no longer functions :( It said booting and installing FW for several hours and didnt respond on any of the buttons. I pulled the plug and it booted up for a while and I though all was good as I could log in. But now I cant reach it at all again.
What is next to try? I´m a total noob at this so please bear with me... Im horrified if I lost 8TB of irreplaceable data so please help :)
