Upgraded PRO 6 to 6.5.1, had fan problems, went back to 6.5.0 and all is well again
Hi, After having succesfully used 6.5.0 on my PRO 6 since the day it came out, I upgraded to 6.5.1 today. The system fan started to act weird. When putting the fans on COOL, it took a little whi...

This trick didn't work. After '# systemctl restart readynasd' the fan immediately started to fluctuate like it does at booting. On the admin page i noticed fan speeds between 251 rpm and 13xx rpm. After a random time (at multiple reboots between 10 - 45 minutes) the fan starts to run normally. When i change the fan mode on the performance, the fan speed starts to fluctuate again for a while too. Also, the systemfan is the only fan visible and that one is fluctuating i gues. The CPU fan is not being showed on the monitorpage, don't know if this is normal? Could it be that i need to update the bios?
I just send my logs too.
Thanks.

Well my fan issue was fixed by clearing cables and whatnot behind the unit so more air could be moved.
Now I'm running into another issue...
Seems like the NIC drivers for 6.6.0 aren't fully compatible with a pro 6 unit.
I run both ports (one is configured for my local lan and one has a public IP address so I can provide remote backups without any hassle.)
The unit will randomly drop one or the other nic. One is still usually operational, but the only thing I can do to get it back to a working state is to reboot the unit.
