1.Normal: Bypass the diagnostic menu and perform a normal boot.

2.Factory Default: Reset the ReadyNAS back to factory default state, erasing all data on the disks. This option can be used to change between X-RAID2 and Flex-RAID mode.

Warning: This process reinstalls the firmware and resets all disk configurations, wiping out any data you might have on the NAS.

3.OS Reinstall: While keeping the data volume in tact, re-install the RAIDiator firmware on the ReadyNAS, reset the admin password,d and change the DHCP assignment to DHCP client. This is helpful if you have lost your admin password and want to set it back to default, if errors in your network settings has made it impossible to connect to the ReadyNAS, or if you suspect that the operating system on your disk may somehow be corrupt.

Tip: If possible, use the configuration backup (see “Configuration Backup” on page 2-31) to save your configuration so that if you have to reset the unit to its factory default settings, you can simply restore all your settings from the configuration backup.

4.Tech Support: Enable the remote diagnostic function.

5.Skip Volume Check: Boot the system but bypass the volume check.

6.Memory Test: Perform a memory diagnostic.

Typically, if you find that a configuration change makes the unit inaccessible, you can use option

(3) to set the unit back to a factory default state.
