Configure NAS
Hi everyone, I´ve been using a shared hard disk in my local network and this is my very first time using a NAS and I cannot find the way to configure it. It´s been a couple of days since I´ve been setting it up but there is nothing else I can do. I have tried a couple of possible solutions but nothing worked so I am going to tell what I have done and see if you can help me. am using the hard drive I used for local network, and I just want to let you know that I only store movies on it so I don’t use it that much and it has got more or less a year since I bought it. So, I formatted the hard drive which is a Seagate ST2000DM001 and inserted in the chamber 1 of the NAS. After turning it up it did nothing, I wasn´t able to find it in the Ready Cloud web page, also pressed the backup button for 5 sec. and nothing. I also downloaded the RAIDar programme and still the same. As I remembered I set to my tech a static IP so I thought it would be because of that so I set the NAS with the 192.168.1.10 to the eth0 and 192.168.1.11 to the eth1. I do have the NAS connected the router my internet provider gave as I also have a switch and thought this could cause some issues. I can ping the ip from my PC sending 4 packages and receiving them too, I have also tried looking up they IP through the browser and nothing. So, I thought it would be a problem with the hard disk so I decided to formatted using this manual selection Factory default and leave it "think” for 30 min; useless.Right now, it has the power button blue and the rest are off. I´m also going to post some photos as they may be useful. Any help is welcome and thanks in advanced.
ReadyNAS NV+ Freezing/Locking up. Diagnostic Help Please!
Hey Guys, My reliable ReadyNAS has been given me issues this last week. It's a ReadyNAS NV+ v1 loaded with 4x2TB WD Green drives. FW is current at 4.1.14. I'm posting here becasue I found this thread: https://community.netgear.com/t5/ReadyNAS-Hardware-Compatibility/ReadyNAS-NV-hangs-freezes-please-help-diagnose-24042647/td-p/931232 Which is the identical symptoms I am getting from my unit. The unit boots, starts a FS and Quota check since I had to hard unplug it due to the power button being non-responsive since this started happening. After the 2 hours that check takes to complete, I can access shares/web console etc for about 30 min. Then the activity lights stop, the power button becomes unresponsive, and share access stops. In the thread linked above, it looks like there was 'Current_Pending_Sector' value which indicated a failing/bad disk. I'm hoping having someone's input on the logs will point at the same issue with mine and not some logic board issues or hardware problem. Keeping the data intact and accessible is my priority at this point. I have been able to extract the logs and loaded them here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7tgX-P1b8UgbTA3blk2VWZ1TkE/view?usp=sharing Any input would be greatly appreacited. Thanks -ken
