Unit Chnage out

No, you may have to do a factory default. As a reminder, here is the procedure for an NV+ v1/Duo v1.
Factory Default
To perform an OS Re-install or Factory Default, this is managed via the Reset button on the back of the chassis.
Locate the reset pinhole.
ReadyNAS Duo/NV/NV+: the pinhole is next to the USB port in the back.
Get a straightened paper clip and depress the hidden switch in the pinhole while the power is off, and then power on the ReadyNAS.
After 5 seconds you will get the first flash of the LED's for the OS Re-install
At 30 seconds you will get the second flash of the LED's for the Factory Default.
As to the two drives from the array, it should not be a problem. If you have any problems, post back.
