Chances of Recovery

You're talking redundant storage with redundant storage to back it up as well? Not a horrible idea at all. Suggestions, if not NetGear, for another NAS? I would like to expand this current setup, once things are resolved, likely to 8tb or 10tb drives.
ReadyNAS have been scarce for some time, and there is quite a bit of speculation here that Netgear is exiting the NAS business. Netgear hasn't said one way or the other. In any event, you should research other vendors now, since many of the new ReadyNAS that you will find are overpriced. But I only own ReadyNAS, so I can't offer specific recommendations on other brands.
I use rsync backup myself, and most NAS out there support rsync.
Yeah, I agree with StephenB on this. I would be vary of buying a ReadyNAS at this stage.
On the top of my head, I would say look at: Synology, QNAP and Asustor. As for backups to another NAS, Rsync should do the job and it is a natively supported Linux application. You will find that feature on any Vendor NAS to be honest.
