ReadyNas214 xraid
7 days ago, I pushed the button on a factory reset of my ReadyNas214 with 4x6TB disks. This defaults to xraid, which I have never used before, but am curious about. Today, 7 days later, exactly, we are at "RESYNC data 50%" progress. Some questions for you:
Is this kind of duration normal/expected? Does it really take 14 days to set up xraid with 4x6tb disks?
What steps will be performed when the resync is complete? How long will they take? Assuming resync succeeds, can I start using the nas straight away?
If a disk fails, somewhere down the line, in the future, and I replace it, how long will it take to resync with a replacement disk?

I'm using 4x6tb WD Red Plus.

Just to confirm - WD Red Plus? Not WD Reds? The ordinary Red (WD60EFAX) is an SMR drive, which could take a very long time to resync.
Download the log zip file from the logs page, and look to see if any disks have errors.
