RND2000 Duo v1 - lockup after boot - OS partition full?
(NB: reposting since it appears my original post never got published for some reason...? https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/RND2000-Duo-v1-lockup-after-boot-OS-partition-full/td-p/1447681) Hello again forum! TL;DR - think my OS partition is full. go to *** END STORY *** if you don't want to read my treatise *** START STORY *** So my ReadyNAS has decided to stop working for me. Not sure when exactly it stopped working - we weren't home for the last week - but upon returning I found a NAS that I couldn't access (Network Shares, FrontView, RAIDar, ping, etc). After troubleshooting networking issues, I attempted to power down the device via the power button to no avail. Left with no other option, I pulled the power (not much different to losing power, so...). Upon reconnection and powering up, I was overjoyed to see an email from my nas advising of the improper shutdown and a commencing RAID sync. Huzzah! I then however find that whilst I was talking to it (and it me), it stopped responding (and access via the aforementioned methods ceases to work). *** END STORY *** NAS Details (sketchy as I haven't looked recently and I don't want to power it up just to get latest info) Hardware: NETGEAR ReadyNAS Duo v1 Drives: 2 x 2TB WD RED WD20EFRX, RAID 1 Radiator Version: 4.1.15 (I think... it's been emailing me all the time to update to 4.1.16) PC Details Windows 10 Laptop, typically accessing via wirless (can jack in if required) After a bit of Googling, I find a few posts that give me the impression that it is a full OS partition. With this knowledge in hand, I'm now looking at fixing the issue but would like to have all the information at hand before I commence and potentiall brick my NAS. I do know my way around PCs, although am not familiar with *nix commands (have played with it a tiny bit many years a go on Red Hat GNOME & KDE, and I do have an Ubunto Live CD here somewhere...).
