Ultra 2 Plus won't boot - support case #18604734
I've been running a ReadyNAS Ultra 2 Plus for about four months now without any problems. A few days ago I upgraded it to the new 4.2.20 firmware, during which I think the system rebooted successfully...
awbenway sounds like you've had a bad run. Most units work fine and don't have problems. I've got multiple ReadyNAS units and never had such a problem with any of them.
When you try to boot does the NAS show in RAIDar (http://www.readynas.com/downloads)? If so, what do you see under the Info (far right) column?
Can you ping the NAS?
If you can't see the NAS in RAIDar, what light pattern do you see?
Have you tried booting with just the old disk?
Also the ReadyNAS supports hot-adding new disks. No need to turn the NAS off before adding a disk. When you hot-add a disk it will be wiped and added into the array.
