NAS104 4th drive installed. Now can not read that drive
Purchased the RN104 a year ago and had supplied 3 WD REDs as specified. All worked fine. Problem was when installing a 4th after Admin page notified me I had reached 2.06 TB of 7.27 TB being free. Installed a 10TB WD Red after confirming Netgear listing of compatible drives. The ReadyNAS went through several days of "its stuff" (sorry, I am not tech savy). After all completed and then a new reboot, I find the 10 TB not recoginised. Any suggestions? You will note from the attached image firmware is up to date. Thank you.

So you had 3x4TB disks and added a 10TB disk to an empty drive bay?
What does the System > Volumes tab look like?
If you download your logs, what does your mdstat.log look like?Whilst vertical expansion wouldn't take place till after a second 10TB disk has been added, you should still get horizontal expansion for adding a disk to an empty drive bay.
