Default S6 M40 Shell error

Our S6 runs for 30 minutes then freezes with the a Shell Error. I'm on my second replacement MM for the same problem. Support suggests reloading the software 2020.11.1.10


Anyone else having this problem?
Thanks,
Roger

Greetings,

It's very likely that this is related to the disk system - specifically a failure of the Master Module SSD. Have you started a case yet?


best,


Jeff

Thanks Jeff. I have a case started. It's bewildering. I'm on my second replacement for the same issue in just a few weeks. Another unit is being shipped early next week.

Hello,
I ran into a similar problem, going into shell and now booting straight to shell every time.
I'm about to start a case but did the SSD change solve the problem?

Hi there. Yes. Avid sent a replacement master module. I went through 3 modules before I got one that was stable. All is well now.
