If you have a blank disk (new, or with no partitions) you can simply insert the disk into the NAS and power it up. The factory default will happen automatically.
However, you do need to know whether you have a v1 or v2 before you purchase drives, and the platforms have different default admin passwords.
Personally I like WDC Red disks (WD20EFRX is 2 TB, and will work in both platforms)
