I am just trying to update, but the update seems to have stopped. The screen says progrss of firmware update 0% in update, and it has been so for at least 2 hours now. What can i do? I do not want to corrupt my disk.

[Bill_S]

This is something you should contact WD Tech Support with and let them help you.  I would do it today, we're doing a major system update that may take the rest of the weekend.

Thank you for your answer, but they are closed for today. I have tried an email.... What is your best advise?

[Bill_S]

Tech Support would be the best advice I can give.

Suddenly after several hours the disk restarted with the new firmware. Everything is now ok.

Well, I was expecting to solve the hangs issues.

-If I transfer a folder with more than 100GB on Win7, it crashes (Light Stuck, Network Drives not responding, Console not responding). Taking out Power only solution to recover.

-If I transfer a folder with more than 100GB through FTP, it goes perfect.

-If I transfer a folder with more than 100GB on Ubuntu (linux), it goes perfect (It crashed the first time, because another windows PC was writing...).

I have done an RMA with the original NAS because of this issue, plus high temps.

Now after doing RMA, temps are correct, but transfer issues remains, and I need it working 100% on Windows!!!!

Why I didn't buy Synology and bought this [deleted]!
