everything is told ... before update it worked, after update it doesn't ... I tryed a different enclosure, that didn't help.
I got response from netgear support, they told me they fond an bug in the firmware causing this problems, I should be patient, this will be fixed in the next fw-update.

Hi kingloser,
Welcome to the community.
I need to gather more details about this problem that you raised here in the community. Questions are listed below.
1. Was the external eSATA hard drive (enclosure) shows up in the UI or been detected in the logs?
2. Have you tried using a different storage device like USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 external hard drive?
I look forward to your response.
Kind regards,
BrianL
NETGEAR Community Teamhi, thanks for your response.
both of my external e-sata devices do not show up in the ui or the log. There is no just no reaction, not even a flash of the LED
And yes, I tryed two different usb-devices and they work fine.
