You will need to do a factory reset (wipes all data, settings, everything).
The procedure is described here: http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/22891/~/how-do-i-access-the-boot-menu-on-my-readynas-104,-204,-214,-or-314%3FWelcome to the community

Yes a factory reset wipes the hard drives.
If this does not resolve it you could try hooking the disks up to your PC, deleting the partitions off the disks, then putting the disks back in the NAS and trying another factory reset.
