I updated to 6.1.9 RC11 successfully. After 2 days the NAS crashed, I had to unplug it to restart. Since I have been having "Booting..." The Power LED blinks for booting, but the Activity LED stays still. I left it that way for a couple of hours still nothing.
After several unsuccessful tries to reinstall the OS. still nothing. I tried booting with Disk 1 and then With Disk 2 only, nothing changed. I tried to boot without any disks but still no luck. I did a Memory Test successful, running a Disk Test, still on going.
Any other suggestions please. for I have 4TB of data on these drives that I mostly need.
I have 2 HDD of 4TB each, and since my ReadyNAS NV+ (4 HDD 1TB each total 3TB & 1TB backup) never had any issue what so ever since the day I pushed the ON button for the first time, I assumed that it was not necessary for the ReadyNAS NR104 :(. The Disk Test I started this morning ran the first Test 100% in a couple of hours daily quickly. and the 2nd Test is extremely slow ? I just realised that the Disk Test doesn't do any repairing ? and I wrong ?
Problems happen, disks can and do fail at any time. There are other problems such as fire,flood, theft etc. No important data should be trusted to a single device.
The disk test doesn't repair anything, that is correct.
I stop the lengthy Disk Test process, and rebooted the NAS, bingo back online. The IP Address changed RAIDar was able to recognise the NAS. I quickly downgraded the NAS to 6.1.8 and rebooted. Still online I noticed that the total used size is back to 3.1TB from 4TB. I checked timeline and found ac couple of snapshot of 3 days ago. Should I roll back to the latest snapshot ?
