Today I was editing some excel spreadsheets on the NAS. For some reason one of the spreadsheets became read only, then access to it slowed down. I decided to restart the NAS. When it came back up I got an email saying the raid is suffering disk problems and that raid is endangered. When I logged on to take a look, tray 1 and 3 were not showing as installed. I shut down the N5200, then removed and re-inserted those trays, then restarted, all drives were showing as OK, though the raid is degraded - I assume it's rebuilding.
The N5200 (Routster model) firmware level is V2.00.08 and the drives are Samsung spinpoint HD103UJ 1Tb models which are about 4 months old.
I don't think there is a problem with the drives, but I can't explain the hic-cup with the N5200. Is it likely to be resolved by updating the firmware?
Thanks
Mike
