Hi everybody, I have a netgear ultra4 and received two hard disks with it but one of them was broken and i returned it to the seller, waiting for the new one. I put one disk inside the no1 slot ...

I am not familiar with the Ultra4, but with all the NAS units I have used the RAID level selected when the volume was created is what you have. The default is an expandable RAID volume, in which case the second drive would become a duplicate of the first until three or more drives are in the volume. All of this happens automatically so there is nothing to do except watch the logs and volume status to ensure the duplication/expansion completes without errors.
