Cannot see the Volumes in NAS.

Hi,
I just added 2 new 3TB HDDS in existing XRAIDs of 2TB each and updated the Firmware but cannot see the Volumes at all.
Error in the events: Volume scan failed to run properly
Please help

    What firmware are you running? Were the new drives added into empty slots, or did you replace existing drives? Can you give us more details on what you did (hot-insert, power-off insert, etc)?
  • Firmware: 5.3.11
    I added the HDDs in the empty slots. Hot-inserted.
    Now I am getting errors in logs saying: Volume scan failed to run properly

    Were the disks used? Did you format them before putting them into the NAS?

    What status does RAIDar give you?
  • Disks were brand new.
    RAIDar looks ok, gives me the Setup\Dashboard page
    But when i click on Volumes, its empty.
  • Having same issue on a NV+ V2. Hard drive3 was failing, replaced VIA Cold swap, when booted, file scan had failed, yet all 4 disks are visible, just can not see the volume.
