Getting status message Corrupt root

Hi.

 

I have used my ReadyNas Ultra2 for something like 2 years. And now one HDD is broken.

 

I changed it and then "Status: Corrupt root"

 

Tryed OS reinstall --> and that diden´t work (same Status: Corrupt root") 

so i tryed --> Factory default --> and that diden´t work (same Status: Corrupt root") 

so i tryed --> ERASE all data --> and that diden´t work (same Status: Corrupt root") 

so i tryed --> Switch possitions on HDD and then Factory default --> and that diden´t work (same Status: Corrupt root") 

 

Then i have tryed Factory default a cuppel of more tryes but it allways goes back to Corrupt root.

    Try putting the drives into a PC, and zeroing them with the vendor disk diags (both seagate's seatools and wdc's lifeguard can do that in their "advanced" tests).
