Also its so ANNOYING that there is no option to just redo/format/wipe etc the old directory and rebuild with out having to take all drives out, remove docking, put them into new computer and then remove partition, wipe them and put them back etc..
That can be done on OS 4 and OS 6 NAS (so you can do it from the admin web ui on the duo v1 you own). Not sure why they didn't include it on the v2.
Going to give it one more try today. Remove drives, delete partitions(since that didnt work i will also rewrite zeros and full format).
This should prevent ReadyNAS NV+ V2 to recreate the old partition.
Hope this works, of not ReadyNAS is trashed and replacement bought. Guess there isn't anything else to do.
SMART error found on drive 4 was 10k Seek Error Rate, due this i will return and get it replaced by warrantie.
SMART error found on drive 1 to 3 was 2 Multi Zone Error Rate, so these are ok.
All drives has 10k hours run time.
Erase disk done, took almost 2 days.. Now disply just says "Erasing Disk ..... Done"
Going to let that stay and see if anything happends. Removed the disk with SMART error, so 3 4TB WD NAS disk's left.
But sinde its taking for ever, i guess the ReadyNAS killed the last 3 disk's also. Same that happend with the first 4 WD 3TB green disks. ReadyNAS killed them wile rebuild :smileyfrustrated:
