Can you access the admin web ui of the NAS, and post a screenshot of what you see there?

Did you just try to migrate the drives?
That wouldn't work with a 2100, unless it was running 6.x.x fimware. It should have worked if you migrated from an RN2120
Can you confirm what you were migrating from (ideally telling us what firmware was running on the old NAS), and how you migrated the drives?

i need to talk to my collegue to answer the questions about the old machin's firmware version and if he did anything to migrate the data.
The 2100 simply was there so we used it. i would be very happy never to use it anymore again. While i would be even more happy to see my data again
let's assume that it was running on an earlier firmware version - like 4.x.x. What options do we have?
