ReadyNAS104 assistance needed
Hi, I have an old ReadyNAS 104 that apparently just crashed. I can get it to reboot and I can access it from a browser but it shows the volume as new? I have 4 - Toshipba 3 TB drives in a RAID 4 configuration. I have attempted to access the BOOT menu by rebooting the NAS with my finger on the power button but that does not appear to work. When I look at the drives they are all showing green but "new" and the volume I had for many years is now gone. Please help
ReadyNAS Pro 6 - Stuck on booting while checking fs
I have searched for similar errrors on here, but none seem to either work or be related as to my situation. My Pro 6 just started to freeze a couple days ago while it was running. I had updated it to OS6 a long while ago. Thinking it might just be a random error, I restarted the device and now it gets to the checking root fs and stops around half way (sometimes more or less). I have tried the following: OS Reinstall - Completes and boots to same percentage. Disk Tests ran fine and rebooted itself (though now this is no longer an option in the boot menu) USB Recovery ran and shutdown. Boots back to same percentage. Tech Support mode works Tried start_raids and it seemed to see every drive. Ran some mdadm commands to examine the drives and array as found in other posts on here with no glaring errors found. Running a 'smartctl -t long /dev/sda' now. Not sure what else to do to get it to boot so I can get my files (prefer it to continue being useful but can get soem other NAS and move my data as long as I can get to it). Thoughts/ideas/help? Thank you.No Volumes Exist Suddenly - ReadyNas 10400 - HELP!
I was in the middle of running a full backup of my readynas 10400 system yesterday and something has gone wrong. Now I cannot access the shares, and the system is showing the message that 'No Volumes Exist' and telling me to remove inactive volumes in order to use the disks. It was set up as a Raid 5 array using 4 discs, and one of them failed the other day, hence my decision to run a backup. I do not have a full backup of all the data so I need to get access back into those shares. I am at a loss as to what to do. I've replaced the failed drive with a new one but still no joy. From what I have read this probably means that the array is out of sync but I don't know how to get it to resyncronise. I have downloaded the logs so can supply them if required. I was in the process of setting up a robust backup system when this happened, so I hadn't managed to back it all up yet. Help, basically.Credentials for terminal login on ReadyNAS 212 after Management Service is offline
Been trying to restore access to the admin page of my ReadyNAS 212. Not sure what caused the web interface to quit working. I can see the internal drives but not the external drives in Windows file explorer. I tried an OS reinstall. Now I'm trying to login using terminal after setting the device into tech support mode. Password has been reset after OS install to admin\password but the credentials don't work for terminal. Credentials work for Raidar. I've also tried root for the ID and different old netgear passwords seen on this forum. I don't want to reset the firmware unless I absolutely have to as the config files I have backed up are several years old. Any suggestions out there? JimRemove Inactive Volumes to sue the disk - RN316
Reading this forum, it sounds like this is not an uncommon situation... I recently had a hard drive fail on my RN316 - replaced it, knowing another was expected to fail soon, and about 2 hours after the resync of the first drive completed, the second drive failed. When I replaced that drive, it did not automatically resync. When I finally managed to get the resync to happen, I was presented with the attached image in the Volumes page - warnings about removing inactive volumes to use disks, and the red drives... I have managed to assemble the arrays /dev/md127 and /dev/md126 - however btrfs is giving me the following when I attempt to mount /dev/md127 mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/md127, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so. Does this sound like it's salvageable by a rebuild of the NAS, or should I be handing the whole thing over to a data recovery expert? (unfortunately, I have no backup - I was naive and trusted RAID5 with the bulk of the data on this NAS - I won't be doing that again)ReadyNAS 104 – Volume gone after attempted disk upgrade
Hi all, appreciate this community resource, longtime 104 (6.10.10) user without issue until now. I had upgraded drives before 10 years ago and sought to upgrade again after running low on space. I am running 3GB x 4 Raid 5 and purchased 4x 12GB IronWolf Pros for the update. I, unwisely, did not backup prior to attempting the upgrade. I started by removing the 3GB drive from Bay 1 and inserting the new 12GB drive. Data started to synchronize. Took a few days. Finished syncing, then when I checked on the device, the LED said "DEAD." Looked at my logs and saw a note that looked like Drive 2 had failed. I removed the 12GB drive from Bay 1 and re-inserted the original 3GB. I hoped the volume might reappear, but it did not. Now the system shows no volume, and I am looking for next steps to try to rebuild or recover this array. Any guidance or assistance would be deeply appreciated.

Successful RN104 disk replacement
Hello community, I just want to share something positive! I just completed the replacement of all 4 1TB disks in my ReadyNAS RN104. Firmware Level 6.10.10. Volume is a X-RAID RAID-5. I'm positively impressed that I could replace disk by disk by new 4TB disk drives and the ReadyNAS handled this perfectly fine. Sure, the rebuild and data redistribute took some time (days) but this was the result of me buying the model with the slow Marvel processor. Thanks Netgear!
