re-flashing the OS - how did you do this? I am currently have the very same problems
You aren't re-flashing, you are installing new firmware (which ends up on both the NAS flash memory and the disks). Note the NAS boots from the disks.
Download the firmware for your NAS (either arm or x86), and unzip it. Then go to system->settings->update and use the install firmware control there. It will update your firmware (and tell you when you need to reboot the NAS).
thanks. how do i know if it is arm or x86?

The KB article has a list of the applicable ReadyNAS after each of the two download links.
- Thanks for your help. Basically I guess if I leave it for the time being until the new firmware is pushed out it will be picked up by the automatic update of the NAS and resolve the issues?

The manual install process is easy - if you are confused about the Arm/x86 aspect, you can just tell us what ReadyNAS you have. If it's a desktop, then any model number over 300 is x86, the models below 300 are Arm. FWIW, if you make a mistake on this, the system will refuse to install it.
