NAS on the Fritz

Hello everyone,

It appears that the NAS has become sentient and has a mind of it own. It’s being rather rotten right now though!

It will randomly power off and on making stable service basically impossible. Here are the details which are also on the status page.

A previously intermittent issue with the NAS has gone hard and randomly powers off and on the NAS typically not through an entire boot and is therefore making the Plex Media Server unusable. The server will be down intermittently very frequently so please keep this in mind until further instruction.

I am currently in the process of collecting the appropriate logs for QNAP support and have a contact who can consult and assist in the event of a hardware issue.

I’ll try to keep you updated as frequently as I can based on when updates arise.

At this point there is no apparent culprit with the exception of some suspicious segmentation faults without timestamps which point to a potential soft issue.

Any questions can be forwarded to the team via the contact us page however as stated above I will do my best to keep everyone in the loop.
