File System Reversion
« on: May 22, 2010, 01:33:00 PM »

 For the second time my DNS-323 seems to have had its file system reverted. I have it configured with a raid 1 volume.

 The first time it became totally unresponsive and I had to force a shutdown. After starting it back up, any file about a week old or newer were missing.

 The second time it stopped sharing files. I was able to restart using the Web UI. After boot, this time I seem to have lost eleven days worth of files.

 It’s been running for about six months without a hiccup before this. I haven’t made any configuration changes lately. Has anyone else experienced this? Once this happens is there any way to recover the lost files?

I fail to understand how that might even be possible. However, it sounds like corruption in some respect. I would try running scandisk from the tools menu (available and working in latest firmware)- or better running manufactures diagnostics on both drives.

Same issue here - since installing firmware 1.08 it randomly reverts from RAID 1 to two separate volumes.  Doing a restore to factory settings restores it, until it happens again.  I'm going back to version 1.06 firmware today since it was working.

The OP didn't say anything about RAID1 changing to two separate volumes?

I ran RAID-1 for some time with the 1.08 beta and then the release, I never had any issue with the filesystem suddenly reverting to separate volumes.  This has to be some hardware or environmental problem I would imagine.
