What happens normally is that the NAS will build the array using disks 1-3. After that is finished it will start to resync the remaining disk with the array. In your case that would be disk 4. So an initial resync is normal. Now there may be a special case where the disk in question reports some relocated sectors or other stuff that the NAS chokes on. This may trigger another rebuild of the array - as happened to me with one of my disks. Although the vendor tools kept saying the disk was fine the issue was only resolved when replacing the disk with a new one.
So in essence: wait for the resync to finish. Once it has, watch whether resyncing occurs again. If so, replace the drive.
