Thanks - running 'Long Generic' test on the first drive now. Might take a while!

Disk 1 (Bay 2)
Short test: Pass
Long Test: Fail after 10 minutes (Code F167CCDB)
Disk 2 (Bay 3)
Short test: Pass
Long Test: Pass (10 hours)
Disk 3 (Bay 4)
Short test: Pass
Long Test: Pass (10 hours)
So i'm hopeful that I can still recover the data from the 2 working drives, but why would the NAS suddenly not be able to mount the volumes?
If i try any sort of error correction to recover bad sectors on disk 1, will that risk further data loss?
If i go ahead with R-Studio, should I mount all three disks into a virtual raid, or just the 2 functioning disks?
The errors on NAS boot are as follows:
_________________________________________________________________
***** File system check performed at Tue May 26 10:25:31 GMT 2020 *****
fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2
fsck.ext4: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/c/c
Possibly non-existent device?
The paths for the shares listed below could not be found. Â Typically, this occurs when the ReadyNAS is unable to access the data volume.
