I set up my Liinkstation 421E with two W.D. Red drives (3TB each) in Raid 1. After a few weeks, the Linkstation indicated that one drive had failed. I RAM'd it and got a new one. Plugged in the new one, and the Linkstation says that it has failed. I tried simply deleting everything on the drive (using a desktop computer to delete all of the partitions on the drive) and plugged it back into the LinkStation. The Linkstation worked fine for a bit, but then sent me an e-mail saying the drive failed with too many bad sectors.
ANYWAY; before I RMA the second drive, I'd like to check the NAS to see if there's anything I can do. However, whenever I try to load up the administrative site, it takes forever, and gets stuck on "Reading -- Please Wait..." I can't click through to the options underneath, so I can't manage the NAS. All of the files are still accessible over the mounted drives on my computer as well as Web Access, but I can't go in to change any settings.
I've tried accessing the site through Internet Explorer as well as Google Chrome. I'm on Windows 7 64-bit. Is this a firmware bug?
It sounded like this person had a similar issue...
