Readynas duo nv+ v2 failed disk and no boot
Hi I have I think found that disk 4 (of 4) has failed. I found it making that known noise of disk failure, wouldnt reboot, tried again, removed disks checked it would come up with no disks. U...
Thanks
It has booted at least looks normal, should I be able to access the volume when a disk has failed and dead?
Just got to wait on delivery for drive tomorrow and plug in and hope for the best.

If you are using XRAID or a RAID mode with redundancy (RAID-1 or RAID-5), then yes.
- That's interesting as it is a raid mode, can't remember which one, thought it was 2 and 2, but actually all disks are 1tb but total size is 2.9 tb with 2.7tb available.

ReadyNAS uses TiB units (1024*1024*1024*1024 = 1 TiB), and that gives 3.85 TiB for the volume size.
