ReadyNAS 214 Won't Restart/Shutdown
Hi, I have a bit of an odd problem and admittedly you can only reproduce it after doing something quite specific. So if I have a .mkv file in one Share and I connect to the NAS via Windows Explo...
UPDATE 2: I decided as I took a backup not long ago I would just pull the power and the system has come back up and is speedy fast again which is good. However I think im concered with the fact that today and a few weeks ago (when my array completely died) it was both the result of asking the unit to restart and then it wouldn't.
My logs don't show a problem with SMART or anything so could it be the NAS itself being faulty? And should I try restarting it again now to see if it can point blank?
What firmware are you running?
One option (brute force) is to do a factory reset, and rebuild the NAS from scratch. Then restore the data from the backup.
If the problem is still there, then it could well be the NAS hardware.
