HDD compatibility? The HDWG480 is not on the [Compatibility List](http
s://www.qnap.com/en/compatibility/?model=442&category=1&filter[type]=1
).  Heat can be a problem also... The HDWG480 can get really warm
which causes all sort of problems such performance and unreliability
issues and so on.

>HDWG480

ah this is a good thought. i didn't think about the compatibility
list. n300 drives are supported and qnap i believe says usually disks
in the same family are okay. is there any way (besides heat, which i
will try to monitor for somehow i guess) to determine if its those
specific drives causing this issue? i can't get replacement drives any
time soon unfortunately so id like to make it work with these

RAID 6 is quite HDD intensive because of double redundancy, this might
cause the heat issue.

Because you’re using RAID 6 you can unplug both Toshiba disks, see
what happens when you reboot. Does the NAS start?

In QNAP you can set the temperature threshold per disk in Storage
Center.

i don't think it's heat, i just experienced the issue again,  during a
resync all the drives were 35-36C and it crashed after about 30
minutes of resyncing
