Firmware Attempt is Unsuccessful

Linksys Small Business NSS4000 and NSS6000 Series Network Storage System Administration Guide
From the Manager Menu, click Storage
The RAID page appears. The failed array appears with a status of "Stopped".
Click Delete.
The disk drives used in the failed array become part of the available storage.
Create a new array as required.
Once built, you can set up the volumes, shares, and quotas for the array. If the
failed array contained the volume used as the Home Directory Location, set the
location to the volume you want to use.
If a drive that is part of a RAID array is accidentally removed and is then
subsequently reinserted into the chassis, the drive Error LED might will become lit.
This means that the drive was rejected from the array.
To resolve the problem:
Remove the drive from the chassis, and then reinsert it.
The Error LED for that drive clears.
If the array did not fail as a result of the original removal of the drive, add the drive
back into the array. If the array failed, follow the steps to recreate the failed array.
If a problem occurs when updating the firmware, check the following:
•
If a copy of the firmware is saved to a disk on the NSS, make sure that you
copied it to another location (such as onto a PC). You cannot install firmware
that is saved to a disk on the NSS.
•
Verify that the firmware is compatible with the NSS platform.
•
Verify that the firmware is newer than the version that is currently installed.
The system does not support downgrades.
