I had 3 disks in raid mode.
I've tried multiple way of starting by removing 1 or 2 disks but it doesn't work.
That was the wrong thing to do in that situation.
Try powering down the NAS and inserting all the disks. If the NAS starts up, then go to the logs page and download the full log zip file.
If you want me to take a look, then put the log zip into cloud storage (dropbox, etc), and send me a private message (PM) with a link. Make sure the permissions allow anyone with the link to download. You send a PM using the envelope icon in the upper right of the forum page.
Thanks for answering me.
The NAS with the 3 disks is writing intensively with no rest.
It seems it's doing something but I don't know what.
It's just flashing data degraded. And admin interface is not accessible
Why I've tried to remove one disk and start.
By the past, I got an issue on one disk (but the NAS told me which disk was corrupted)
I removed the fawlty disk.
Added a brand new disk and NAS reconstructed RAID on it.
Simple as that.
In this case, I can remove either disk 2 or disk 3 and NAS will start.
Admin is accessible.
So I I removed disk 2 and exported logs.
I'll PM you the link to download them
