Remove inactive volumes to use the disk. Disk 1,2,3.

Hi,

My Disk 1 of 3 was degraded  (4 TB Western Digital Red - made for NAS drives). After defrag and balancing to no avail - after a short while (an hour or two) the web inteface was unreahable, however the disk was available in filesharing. After that I did a reboot and then I got the message where the webinterface was ok again but "remove inactive disk 1,2,3" They disks are now all unmounted and red on the web-interface (green light, though).

 

What should I do?

    Hello Hans-Jakob,

     
    It appears the issue you have described requires assistance from the engineers and/or higher tier who can remote in to the NAS and fix this from the backend. I suggest creating chat support case so our chat support team can help escalate the case.
