Have you tried all the ports on the Pro2?

The front port will not recognize the drives but either of the back ports will, so much for USB3 speeds, I will probably go another route next time that offers esata since that will be much faster, It works now but usb transfers on the readynas is just too slooow...yeah I understand about the ntfs vs ext3, I'm a linux guy but most small businesses that I deal with are running windoz, oh well...thanks for the response.
