I installed OS6 on my ReadyNAS, which worked fine for a couple of days. I moved it, with all my data on it, from work to home. When booting home it is stuck on the "ReadyNAS" startup screen. What ...
Welcome to the Community!
Are you stuck on the admin page screen or the LCD screen on the NAS? Checking RAIDar for the status of the NAS would be best.
Also, your NAS might have a different Network address. Is it on DHCP? If it is, try downloading RAIDar and see the new IP. If it's on static, doing an OS-Reinstall is the next procedure.

Marc_V thanks for your reply. Much appreciated!
I am already stuck on the LCD screen on the NAS and do not get an IP address (network connection is also not blinking)
Even the RESET option which is mentioned here (https://kb.netgear.com/21107/How-do-I-access-the-boot-menu-on-my-ReadyNAS-Ultra-6-Ultra-6-Plus-Pro-6-Pro-Pioneer-or-Pro-Business-Edition) is not working at this moment.
Can a replacement op the CMOS battery help?
Very strange since all worked fine before. I just shut down the NAS, took ik home with the car and booted it home.
Without success.
If it's stuck on booting, you may want to try USB recovery first.

If you are just seeing "ReadyNAS" on the LCD screen, then you might have a failed power supply. That would be consistent with none of the controls responding at all.
Try removing all the disks (label them by slot as you remove them). Then power up, and see if you get a "no disks" status. If you do, then it's likely not the supply.
The supply can be replaced - there are several posts here on that subject. Sandshark can also provide more details, and help you confirm that it is the PSU.
