It's an old NAS, and of course it isn't supposed to run that way.
Do you have a backup plan in place for the files?
Also, I suggest downloading the full log zip file, and looking in there for errors. The summary in the web ui leaves out a lot of stuff.

Hi Stephen, Thankyou. The logs failed to download, and then I couldnt access the admin, switched off and on but failed to connect with RAIDAR sometimes RAIDAR sees it and tells me the disks are fine, but I am unable to browse or log in. Is there anyway, if I remove a disk and plus into windows that the OS would read it?

You could try connecting drive 1 to a PC, and then access the files with R-linux for Windows. https://www.r-studio.com/free-linux-recovery/

Thankyou Stephen, I am trying ReclainMe File Recovery https://www.reclaime.com/library/nas-recovery.aspx which seems to be finding my files, I'll report whether it finds everything, and can be saved. Most files but not all were backed up to OneDrive!

R-linux for Windows is free, and likely will also work. So perhaps try that before purchasing ReclaiMe.
