RN104 Inactive Disks = No Data

Hi all,

 

I have been out of the country for a while and my NAS has been switched off sitting in a box until today. I plugged it back in and I'm not seeing any data at all!

 

I have 4 x WD Red 4tb drives in the NAS which were working fine before I left, but now I can't see any data just a message that says:

 

"Remove inactive volumes to use the disk. Disk #1, 2, 3, 4."

 

I looked at the logs and the last message is a bit worrying:

 

Sat Apr 8 2017 16:02:30 Disk: Disk in channel 1 (Internal) changed state from ONLINE to FAILED.

 

Does anyone know what might be happening? I can upload my logs for someone, but I can't attach it to this post because it's not the right format...

 

Any help will be greatly apprecaited!

 

Cheers,
Wayne

 

P.S. I don't have a backup.
