Thank you for your reply.
I do not remember the version of the firmware but it was the last available on the website.
There is a recovery process? I only need to insert the USB key created with the recovery tool and turn on the NAS?
Unfortunately I do not know the IP address of the NAS.
Thanks a lot.
Best regards.

So you're saying you updated from 6.5.2 to 6.6.0?
You can see if you can find the I.P. of the NAS using RAIDar: http://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads
The USB Recovery Tool is in a location where there's a bunch of different folders. One is a Marvell folder. If you put the ARM firmware image in there then when you run the tool you'll be able to select that firmware image when you run the tool.
Exact I was upgrading from version 6.5.2.
Now that I have the USB key ready with the upgrade how do I run it on my nas?
Just follow the following steps?1.Power down your ReadyNAS storage system.
2.Insert the prepared USB drive into the front USB port.
3.Press and hold the Backup button, then power on the ReadyNAS system and continue to hold the Backup button for up to 15 seconds, depending on your ReadyNAS model.
If your ReadyNAS system is a 2-bay model, you might not know when the unit is entering USB Recovery mode unless your USB drive has an activity indicator. If your USB drive does not have an activity indicator, hold the Reset button for a full 30 seconds to ensure that your ReadyNAS system is in USB Recovery mode.
4.Wait for the ReadyNAS system to finish with the recovery and power down.
5.After the system powers down, remove the USB drive and try booting normally.Thanks a lot.
Have a nice day.
Best regards.
MaurizioThat should head hold the backup button for a full 30 seconds, not reset button.
Yes that's the process. Not all USB keys are compatible.
