ReadyNAS Ultra 2 Plus not found in RAIDar

I have bought this NAS with 2 500GB disks. After first boot, I was able to config the NAS. There was a notice that RAIDiator 4.2.18 is availaible and I updated from 4.2.15. After a while I got an email to restart my NAS to complete the update. But now I'm not able to access the NAS. RAIDar 4.3.2 doesn't find the NAS and I'm not able to ping the assigned IP adress.

RAIDar only detects the NAS very shortly after rebooting: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/215/nassl.png

Was there a problem with the firmware update?

Same problem here!

Same configuration. (2x 500Gb disk)
Initial setup was succesfull. after setup message stating an update was required.
After installing this update (4.2.18) the device isn't detected by Raidar.
Also it seems the device doens't completely boot up.
Fans keep running at high revs.

What to do?

Great start for a new NAS (my first Nas!) 😞

Tried OS Reinstall first, did not work. Now I tried Factory Default, that seems to work. NAS is found in RAIDar, after drive check I configured it as X-RAID2. Now its resyncing and RAIDar shows firmware version 4.2.18.

Thanks for the link 'bbirkhahn'
I tried to reinstall OS, and with succes. 😄
The Nas is up and running, and can be found trough Raidar.
However it seems one disk has failed.
Perhaps this could be why the upgrade failed.
So problem resolved.
Going to call the disk in for a DOA.

Thanks
