May 30, 2020I appear to have an intermittent hardware problem. Tough to diagnose as an end user.
I have two memory cards in my ReadyNAS Pro 6 (2 x Patriot PSD28G800K) - 8 GB total. I removed one of the memory cards, and the unit has been working without error (reboots) for about a week now.
I'm not sure if this is a memory failure, or some connector/part moved when I took out one memory stick. I wish I could use a tool like MemTest86 to test the RAM at boot with a USB drive.
Earlier I had replaced the motherboard CR2032 battery, but that did not fix the hourly reboots. The machine was basically in a death spiral, rebooting in the middle of re-syncing (which takes around 12 hours for this machine).
If this problem returns, I'll replace my ReadyNAS Pro 6 with a RN626X00-100NES. Hopefully I'll be able to move my disks over keep my data. I'm guessing that the file system will have to be resyncd on the new system, as a reboot in the current ReadyNAS Pro 6 will corrupt the file system.

Normally you can simply migrate the disks with the NAS powered down.
Can you explain the comment that "a reboot in the current ReadyNAS Pro 6 will corrupt the file system"?
