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. Use the OS REINSTALL Option to Re-install the Firmware To Re-install the RAIDiator firmware on the ReadyNAS without touching the data volume, follow these steps. 1. Power off the device. 2.
