You said you had an orange volume status. It should be green. There should be some details as to why. I don't own a v2, so I can't give much specific advice.
I do know that on other ReadyNAS you can hover your mouse over the status indicators, and get more information. You can also install RAIDar on a PC (http://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads?cid=wmt_netgear_organic ) and that will also show status (including more details if you hover over the graphic indicators).
Look at the log in the web UI might also give some clues.
"drill down" is slang that means to gather detailed information by focusing in on something.
i understand but drilling down volume only shows total size and available size
maybe green and red westerndigital drives dont match

You need to drill other places then. Look at disk smart stats for instance. Does RAIDar give you a green volume status?

Then it wouldn't have resynced, and the volume would never have become redundant.
