Copy of first file to NVX on XRAID2 always fails
I have a NVX with 3 disks of 1GB in XRAID2 each time after a fresh start of the NVX the first file I copy to the NVX stops during the copy for no reason at all... after a while it fails or picks up ...

No just /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. /dev/sdc (probably disk 3) is already 4k sector partition aligned. One of the logs would indicate which is which disk.

and does it matter what disk I remove add first?
Only if one or more of your disks is failing.

what is the chance this would mess up my system?
If a disk is failing, yes.

btw thx for the support, netgear support was not much help.
Well I'm a user like you, so I don't mind, except my personal preference would be to use supported disks. Disks not on the compatibility list may/may not work.

and how do you know that the last one is 4k sector aligned, because of the entries the partition table can hold?
Why you might want to factory reset a x86 ReadyNAS
