I, too, have had major issues upgrading from 6.7.2 to 6.7.3 or 6.7.4. Please note that I am running an external enclosure. If I upgrade with the external enclosure powered up, I get endless loops o...

You've got an EDA500. Have a read of the 6.7.5 Beta 1 Release Notes and if you think you've run into an issue mentioned there you may wish to go to https://ip.address.of.nas/fwbroker and update to the beta.

If you look under the hood our OS is based on Debian Jessie and the kernel is based on the 4.4 LTS kernel series with backported patches. We're ahead of at least most of the competition in this I believe.
Our experience with BTRFS is much greater than most too as we've been using it for all our new products since 2013 as the default and only filesystem for the data volume (and for the root volume as well on x86 systems).
If there's features you'd like to see added you can post them or upvote them in the Idea Exchange for ReadyNAS
It would be good if you could send in your logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig).
You may have also got a core dump (/var/cores/core-readynasd) which would be useful for debugging the issue you encountered.

I'm in the same boat. Upgraded from 6.6.1 to 6.7.4. Volumes are up, system reachable through ssh, but admin page is offline. Readynasd is restarting every 15 secs.
What would the first step be: firmware reinstall?
Thanks

That seems to be doing the trick, thanks! Admin page is up, nothing unusual to been seen for now. I have to say though that I'm always very reluctant to upgrade this OS6 box, ran into serious trouble in the past. I never had any issues upgrading my NVX Pioneer, different OS though.
Cheers
