Id love to have it set up as a plex storage mostly as I have a 2tb hard drive in the nas at the moment. And just to use it as extra storage for my household. Ive tried setting it up with raidar but it cant scan for it. so at the moment I have no idea how to tap into it?

Are you seeing it in your router's attached device list?
Also, try powering down and removing the disk. Then power up and see if RAIDar finds it (it should report a no-disks status).
Internet security software (including some antivirus packages) can interfere with RAIDar, so maybe also try disabling those.
