Try booting up the Duo w/o disks, and see if RAIDar finds it.
You can erase the disks in a Windows PC (using Seatools or WD's Lifeguard tools), or unformat them use Windows Disk Manager.
Then power up the NAS with the disks installed, and it should do a factory install.

If you use the default XRAID/RAID-1 you'll end up with 750 GB of storage. You should use disks that are the same size. Your NAS should be able to take up to 2 TB drives. The Duo v2 (which says Duo v2 on the front panel) can handle larger drives.

This will be much slower than current ReadyNAS (Netgear stopped shipping these products quite a while ago). Note it only supports SMB 1.0 - which is being deprecated by Microsoft in Windows 10, and Apple in Calalina. You can enable SMB 1.0 in Windows 10 - not sure if this is possible with Catalina.
