Hi riteoh,
I have no solution for you but I have the exact same issue :cry:
For me it began a couple of weeks back (about when it began for you it seems?). The drive responds to a ping, but doesn’t respond to any other protocol - neither http, afp, nor ssh.
The only way I can get it to respond again is a controlled shutdown and restart. Hold the button in on the back to initiate a controlled shutdown (take your finger off as soon as you feel the drive start to read; if you hold it in for too long (four seconds?) it’ll shut down the unit immediately without letting the OS shut itself down). Once it’s fully off, click the button again to start it up.
I’ve looked in what logs the unit stores (/etc/messages) and there’s no errors there to suggest what the problem might be.
I do hope someone here finds the cause :confounded:
yan
