3 TopicsReadyNAS Duo v1 not responsive - stuck on RAID resync?
A while ago I got an email from my seven year-old ReadyNAS which has 2 x Western Digital Caviar Green 2 TB Desktop Hard Drive (WD20EARS): "Access to the disk on channel (??) is producing I/O errors. Although the array is still redundant, please replace this drive as soon as possible, as it is likely to fail soon." I plugged an external USB HDD into it and set a backup job, but the job failed part of the way through so the backup is incomplete. Eventually the ReadyNAS stopped responding (couldn't connect via Finder or access Frontview). I unplugged it and powered it back up. For a while it's responsive and I can access Frontview and see that it is doing a RAID resync (I get an email saying "A SATA reset has been performed on one or more of your disks that may have affected the RAID parity integrity."). However although it seems to be powered up (LEDs, fans, seen by my router and RAIDar) it is again unresponsive and the backup job does not run. RAIDar reports that it is resyncing, but it is stuck at 0.0% (Frontview showed something different before it stopped responding but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I know this model is EOL and long out of warranty. I just want to be able to get my data off it. Can anyone help? If the attempted RAID resync is the issue, should I power it down, pull one of the drives and power it back up? And given that one of the drives is maybe failing, is there any way of knowing which drive I should pull? Grateful for any help you can offer.

Since the thread has been closed I thought I'd add this one. Link to original issue is below: Odd Firefox Behavior on Duo V1 | NETGEAR Communities Apparently is was something in FF as it now works properly. No "doubling up" on the Duo's, each link opens properly. My current version of FF is 144.0. Can't say for sure which update fixed it as I've been using a different browser just for my Readynas. I was in FF looking at my other NAS and wanted to check backup status on the Duo. Rather than fire up another browser I just opened my bookmark for my Duo. I guess the "muscle memory" of clicking on backup jobs made me click it directly. As soon as I did I thought "dang it!". To my surprise it opened fine, just like it used to do. I clicked around to the other prior trouble spots and no issues. Not sure how useful this info will be as the issue "solved itself", but I wanted to complete the story. Admins/Mods, feel free to close this thread as I consider the matter fully resolved.
