My RN204 came with 6.5.0 and after installing 4x 6TB Red's, setting up RAID6 with encryption and checking I have successfully updated it to 6.5.1. Ever since it had no issues whatsoever.
Fairly recently I've tried to update it to 6.5.2 and it started to hang on me. I suspect it happened during scrubbing (manual or scheduled). Symptomps:
HDD light is flashing & I can hear HDD's seeking once in a while.
No reaction to pressing of the power button. However, its led is on.
Front info panel is off, all the time.
I can't access admin page - "This site can’t be reached; ********* took too long to respond."
My router (ASUS RT-N11P) reports it to be connected. My PC (W10) can't identify connection apart from it being 1GBps, if I plug it into the LAN port.
Only pulling the pug fixed the problem, untill scrub was run again.
I have reverted to 6.5.1 and all went well again.
Once 6.6.0 was available, I decided to give it a go and... as of right now I wondering if I should pull the plug and try the new 6.6.1 BETA2, since it says it fixes crashes or I should wait and see, if it can potentially resolve in case if scub is hanging it. Assuming scrub would be over, which will take a while.
Thanks for the quick response. I can't really tell if the scub is in progress, since the panel is off, and there is no way I can access the box via LAN (discovery tool doesn't do it either).
I guess I will let it go for about as long as my regular scub goes.
