Whoever did the QA for this firmware testing should be demoted to the Mail Room…
So, I have a 4TB NAS. We were in the process of wiping it when one of the techs noticed it needed a firmware update. Runs the firmware, 100% / 100% → Reboots. Bricks. I can see the device on my switches. My DHCP server hands it an IP. But nothing can access it. And now the “Red Checkmark” is blinking whenever I plug in a Cat5 Cable.
I tried disturbing the raid by switching the hard drive arrangement to see if it would reset back to day 1, but so far, that didn’t work. Is there a way, outside of me hauling this thing to the range and putting 12 rounds through it, to make this thing useful again?
