Thanks for the response Stephen.

I can obtain various JRE versions, but note RAIDar states it needs at least JRE 11 - hence I expected 17 to be fine.

Yes

Of course, many times.

Thanks. That rings a bell from when I had to do recovery from the MyBookWorld NAS.

Netgear hasn't maintained RAIDar. The JRE I posted works with RAIDar 6.5 (and everything newer I've located will not).

I'd like to see if RAIDar can find it.
If it doesn't, then power down and remove the disks (labeling by slot, so you can return them to the same bays later). Then power up diskless, and see if RAIDar finds them with a no-disks status.
Make sure the NAS is powered down before adding back the disks.
