readynas nv+ ERROR: BAD FIRMWARE during booting

Postby wpevers » Tue Dec 14, 2010 3:33 pm

Hello,

i am new to the forum. i hope someone is able to help me.

I have bought a ReadyNas NV+ in the netherlands where i live, a month ago and have been using it with 1x1TB Samsung HD103SJ and 2x2TB Samsung HD204UI drives.
After a powerdown today i restarted my readynas.
During booting it gives the message: ERROR: BAD FIRMWARE and freezes.

What to do. I have files on the disks that i absolutely don't want to loose.
My online reported case number is: 13999814

Is there anyone that can help?
kind kind regards,
Wouter

Did you ever solve this issue? I have the option to buy a ReadyNAS NV+ that says this error but I don't want to buy it unless I can fix it. :)

Don't buy it in this condition. Seller should attempt USB Boot Recovery

NB: A ReadyNas is not an excuse not to have a backup. Fire, theft, multiple disk failures, other hardware failure, floods, user negligence etc. can all result in loss of data.
