Are you using FlexRaid or XRAID?

Hi StephenB, this is actually my case I posted in the /netgear sub on Reddit. I am not 100% sure which raid it is using. When I view the disks under System | Storage, it shows Raid 5+0, x2. Files are still accessible, but there doesnt seem to be anything saying the logs are syncing. When I go into the volumes and look at the summary, it shows that the Health is Degraded, but I assume that is because there is a disk not online. Below are the logs I see from when the old drive when bad until now:

ReadyDATA used to depend on storage blocks (HDD) signed by Netgear. This limitation was removed on the late ReadyDATA OS builds. The requirement for replacement storage blocks supporting normal 512 byte block sizes remains for HDDs and SSDs. https://kb.netgear.com/31086/ReadyDATA-OS-1-4-4-Using-unsigned-drives
