However as I purchased the unit from a company called CEX (Computer Exchange) it is a used item. I've tried to register the unit and it's telling me that its registered to another user.
When I run RAIDar all I get is a screen telling me the details of the unit, nothing else.
Note quite nothing - it is showing you a TFTP_REQ status. That means that something isn't right with the internal flash memory.
You could try doing a USB recovery. https://kb.netgear.com/29952/How-do-I-use-the-USB-Recovery-Tool-on-my-ReadyNAS-OS-6-storage-system
Note you need to follow the instructions for the ARM-based system at the bottom. Generally older thumb drives work better than newer ones (and you might need to try more than one).
If that fails, then I suggest returning the unit to the seller.

Did you migrate the disks or did you start with a factory default?
Are you seeing signs of disk activity?

I installed then then done a factory reset to wipe the disc's.
I have activity on the NAS and I've managed to migrate my data. The ready NAS can be seen on the network by all devices and the TV streams my video and likewise with SONOS & my music. I just cant access the admin page to change any settings.
Thanks

Are you using https://nas-ip-address/admin in the browser?
Does RAIDar indicate that the array is still syncing?
You could use your courtesy phone support to resolve this (via my.netgear.com)

Since the NAS has a self-signed SSL certificate, too-harsh security settings and/or a virus or malware protector can block it.
