aaccee - If there is no green indicator showing for the volume in RAIDar, then it is not recognizing the disks. If the drives had been initialized and synchronized you should have a green indicator light for the overall status to the left of the MAC address column indicating that the overall status is OK. You should also have a green indicator light in the first column to the right of the IP address indication that the volume had been established and was OK. You should also have two green indicator lights for the drives indicating that they are OK. The fact that you have a blank volume status light means that no disks are being recognized. I would then assume that the status lights for your two disks are also blank.

You could try removing one of the two disks (bay 2) and perform another factory default. A one disk install will only take about 20 minutes or so since it does no synchronization. If you get the normal green lights when it is finished, remove that drive and repeat with the second drive. If that comes up with all green lights, then I would hot add the first drive to the empty bay and let it resynch. Once it has finished, check the status.

The drives are definitely on the HCL so I'm not sure why you are having so much trouble.

You might also want to try connecting the HDs to your PC via an SATA port on the motherboard and run the vendor tools. If the pass, then there is an apparent problem with the unit. At that point you should probably contact technical support. You do have 90 days of free telephone support following your purchase date.
