Hi Guys,
Thanks for the replies, to answer your questions:
Can you access your data?
- not through the NAS, I have yet to connect the drives to a PC.
Have you rebooted the NAS?

I did notice that on the first disk there is a Read Bad Sector 1 under the info link.
I do not have access to the NAS at the moment as I am at work, but I can upload the logs if you think it will help. I do not know what I am looking for.
