Have you tried running the diagnostics with RAIDar?
Also, will it download the logs?

Before I factory reset the device, downloading the logs via Raidar was not working. When I would select download logs, it would load for a moment then nothing would happen. Same with the diagnostics.
Now that I've factory reset it, the only radio button in Raidar just says "Offline Setup (LAN)" which just tries to open the admin page in a web browser which just never stops loading.
I initiated an OS reinstall before I went to bed last night. This morning the NAS status says that it is resyncing. Admin page still not accessible. Storage utilization is still showing 27.3TB/27.3TB 100%. Before I factory reset the NAS, the storage utilization was at 0%. Really strange.

The drives have been reformatted by what? You want the drives unformatted when installed for a factory default or else you have to format them yet again with the NAS because it uses a Linux disk format.

Reformatted by the NAS. I've done a couple factory resets, and now an OS reinstall.
