My NAS was up and running okay until I installed a gigabit network card today. I figured out via the forum that the onboard lan needs to be disabled in the BIOS - which I did.
When I rebooted, I noted that the activation code failed and that the system would hang on "Checking storage filesystem" on the main 8tb drive.
I could not get access to the admin console like this, so I disconnected all but the boot drive. I got access and reset the activation key and the system appeared to be happy. Also, the new network card seemed to be communicating just fine.
However, now when I turn the server on, all process are green until it gets to the main storage drive again, where it appears to hang on "Checking storage filesystem".
Is it just taking a really long time to check the filesystem, because it looks like it's hung on that disk to me and there is something more ugly at work here.
