Got a similar problem myself with the same disks and NV+ V2. Got 30065229831 Command Timouts on Disk 1 after a disk test performed trough the boot menu. Powered down the nas, removed Disk 1 and ran Seatools on it without findig any faults. Put the disk back in and ran a new disk test on the nas, when that finished the command timouts had doubled to 60130459662. Incredibly high number! Had a spare disk lying around, brand new. Removed Disk 1 once again and resynced to the brand new disk. Ran a new disk test with the same result a before, 30065229831 Command Timouts on Disk 1. What is happening here? Running RAIDiator 5.3.6

I don't believe the 30065229831 (or 60130459662) number, but there still might be something actually wrong in the SMART stats. Are you seeing this in email alerts/log entries? If so you should confirm by looking at the actual SMART statistics.

You might also try putting the drive into the PC again and looking at the SMART stats there (Seatools won't show them to you, but other tools will. Acronis Drive Monitor is one of several).
