Hi Marc_V ,
Thanks of the quick response and welcome,
I've gotten the device up and running again, adding 1 disk at a time. When I add the 4th disk in, that's when things get a little weird.
The first time I did it, the NAS started went a bit mad and all but disk 2 became available.
The second time I tried it's went into a resycing process (says it's going to take 25 hours), but all appears fine.
So my question is,
Can a faulty disk do this to a NAS, or is it the NAS?....hence replace the disk or replace the NAS.
On a side note, I don't think I have the actual receipt but I do have the Amazon invoice, would that surfice?
Regards
Gav

It could be either. I suggest connecting the disks to a Windows PC and testing them with WD's lifeguard program (one at a time of course).
On the NAS side, it could be power-related, or possibly a failing SATA interface.

I've uploaded the order info from Amazon - that should be enough to verify the purchase date and the reseller status.
