System clock and spindown on NV+
Past February I enabled disk spindown on my NV+ (4.1.13, with 4 disks). This works nicely, but now I noticed that since then the system clock is very inaccurate. The system runs ntpdate every 4 hours,...
If it is a kernel thing, it must be limited to specific models, since I am not seeing it. Mine is v3 hardware.
There is a small battery (CR2032) on the system board for the clock - likely it is dead on your system. Not sure if it is related, but if you want to try replacing it there is some info here on removing the battery (ftp://downloads.netgear.com/files/RESET_TIMER.pdf). The link isn't really about replacing it, but once you get it out, you can certainly do that.
