ReadyShare drives not playing nice with large files after update
I have used two ReadyShare drives through the routers USB ports for a Plex server and Games drive since getting this router a little over a year ago. I'm still able to see the drives from all the PCs...

so the firmware released is terrible. Even more terrible, is that the data / the disk was corrupted bij the upgrade of the firmware.
diskutil and als fsck could not repair the disk so i needed to buy Diskwarrior ($132,90) to rescue the data on the disk.
I wonder, will Netgear pay me for the made expenses and for a lot of time spend to solve this problem caused by their crappy new unstable firmware???

I have a RAX48, and I think I'm having the same issue. Where can I find older firmware versions to try and see if downgrading also solves my problem? Thanks!
