    							Power On
    To power on the system:
    1.Connect the system to a power supply.
    Depending on the system's last power state, the system might power on automatically.
    For more information, see Power State on page 34.
    Note
    2.If necessary, press the Power button.
    The system powers on.
    Preferred Shutdown
    You can gracefully shut down your system by using the Power button or the ReadyNAS local admin page.
    For information about how to gracefully shut down your system using the ReadyNAS local admin page, see
    the ReadyNAS OS 6 Software Manual, which is available at support.netgear.com/product/ReadyNAS-OS6.
    To gracefully shut down your system using the Power button:
    1.Press the Power button.
    The Power LED blinks, prompting you to confirm the shutdown.
    2.Press the Power button again.
    The system shuts down gracefully.
    Forced Shutdown
    Perform a forced shutdown only if the storage system is not responding.
    To perform a forced shutdown:
    •Unplug the system from the power supply.
    Power State
    If the power supply is interrupted due to a power failure, the system returns to its last state when the power
    supply is restored:
    •If the system was powered on at the time of the power failure, the system powers on when the power
    supply is restored.
    •If the system was powered off at the time of the power failure, the system remains off when the power
    supply is restored.

    							Boot Menu
    Use the boot menu to restart or troubleshoot your ReadyNAS storage system.Your storage system has the
    following boot modes:
    •Normal. Initiates a normal boot process, just like booting using the Power button.
    •Factory default. Initiates a short disk test that takes approximately 5 minutes. After the disk test, a
    10-minute time-out period begins.
    WARNING:
    The factory default reboot process resets the storage system to factory
    settings, erases all data, resets all defaults, and reformats the disk to X-RAID.
    -If you want to cancel the factory default process, power off the storage system before the 10-minute
    time-out ends.The system powers down safely without causing any data loss.
    -If you want to reset the system to factory default settings, do not power off your system. After the
    10-minute time-out period, the factory default process begins.
    To start the factory default process immediately, press the Backup button during the
    10-minute time-out period.
    Tip
    •OS reinstall. Reinstalls the firmware from the internal flash to the disks. Use the OS reinstall boot mode
    when the system crashes and corrupts some configuration files. OS reinstall boot mode also resets
    some settings on your storage system, such as Internet protocol settings and the administrator password,
    to defaults.
    •Tech support. Boots into a low-level diagnostic mode. Use the tech support boot mode only when a
    NETGEAR technical support representative instructs you to do so.
    •Volume read only. Mounts a volume as read-only. Use this option when you are attempting to rescue
    data off a disk during a disaster recovery.
    •Memory test. Performs a memory test.The memory test runs for eight hours.The current status and
    the pass or fail result is reported using the storage system LEDs, as described in the following table:
