Awesome information; So even though my model sticker on the bottom of it says RND2000 v2. It appears (at least according to the link you provided) to actually be a V1, this may be the issue at hand. I'll download the manuals for the v1 and see where tha gets me.

Also can you confirm that you have the v2?: http://www.rnasguide.com/2012/01/09/how-to-tell-whether-i-have-a-duo-v1-or-duo-v2-or-nv-v1-or-nv-v2/
The v1 boot menu is completely different to the one for the v2.
A screenshot of RAIDar would be helpful but do note that that was written for newer models running 6.2.4 onwards.
If there was no firmware on the device then the system wouldn't boot as far as it got already.
Also, the USB Boot Recovery files for the v1 and v2 are different.

WIth the information that i was on a v1 and not a v2 cleared everything up I was able to get my ReadyNAS up and running. Now I have another question but I guess that will be with another post thanks everyone!
