Thanks corinbishop. Next step for me is to figure out how to offload all my data to an external USB drive. Waiting for Netgear support to provide some instructions on this step.
For what it's worth, I don't see anything related to this issue in the rel notes for 6.4.2.

Next step for me is to figure out how to offload all my data to an external USB drive. Waiting for Netgear support to provide some instructions on this step.
If youre not in tech support mode yet, you could try to boot in Volume read only mode from the Boot Menu. That worked for me. It booted ok and was able to do a full backup + CRC comp afterwards without problems.
I used this FAQ as a guideline How do I back up data from my ReadyNAS OS 6 system to a USB disk?
And I would advise EXT4 target (eg external USB). Seems much faster than NTFS backup.
Prolly also preserves permissions better if that would be important. Only reason to choose NTFS would be if you also need to be able to read it under windows (eg on another pc).
For what it's worth, I don't see anything related to this issue in the rel notes for 6.4.2.
Guess they dont have a real clue about the issue yet.
