ReadyNAS 314 - a year of hell and now lost 10years of data!

4x Seagate 3TB NAS drives arrived and placed into ReadyNas314
The ReadyNas did a factory reset when powered on, and spent the next 24hrs doing the Resync data xx.xx% thing.
When it had finished I thought I would be able to start using it. But no!
On the LED it says "cannot connect discovery server". I can't connect to it in a browser window. RAIDar finds the device on 192.168.0.24 but shows no info, and can't access setup. This is the same IP my router reports and I can ping it fine.
So I tried to do an OS reinstall, it wouldn't do it saying "ERR: Disks used see RAIDar" on the LED screen
Now doing another factory reset, so got to wait another 24hrs...
Any ideas why it's being an a*se?
Shall I just send this unit back? I have spent more time trying to get it to work than it has actually worked!
