File system check 100% of last 24 hours

I would try booting the NAS with disk 1 replaced with a brand new disk that has no partitions on it.

Ok, I did exactly that.

Here is what is going on now. For the first 5-10 minutes, the RAIDar software still shows File System check 100% which happen in a few minutes. All the way to the left, there is a blue dot which is the same as before and both the " Setup and browse" buttons are grayed out. This is exactly the same as before the drive switch.

However, the machine itself has " Drive #1" flashing relatively quickly, the activity light is flashing even quicker than the Drive#1 light and the power light is slowly pulsing between dim and bright for the first 5 minutes. Now the power light is solid.

Both Drive #1 and activity light are flashing.

After the first 5-10 minutes,

RAIDar software, the button all the way to the left has turned " Yellow" the "Volume status" button is blinking green, and the first light on Disk status is blinking green.

*Update, I am now able to access the files and folders. I am also now able to access the web admin screen.
Resync in progress.

When I click on Volume, it said " Status: Resync 1% complete, Time to finish 7470722 hr 55 min, Speed 0 KB/sec"

That is an odd amount of time to complete. Do you think its not actually rebuilding the drive? Maybe its formatting the drive first which is why the resync is currently at " Speed 0 KB/sec"

*Update, now it said " Status: Resync 3% complete, Time to finish 3060215 hr 50 min, Speed 0 KB/sec"
So its becoming more complete even though the speed is still 0KB/sec. I hope this means its formatting the drive before the rebuild.



A quick view of the logs, I think the time stamp may be a little off. : I must say that I am surprised, I did not know this unit had all these alerts. I usually just turn in on once in a blue moon grab a file and turn it off. I am going to need to setup email alerts on all my systems without exception after this incident.

Wed Dec 24 23:08:17 PST 2014 A SATA reset has been performed on one or more of your disks that may have affected the RAID parity integrity. It is recommended that you perform a RAID volume resync from the RAID Settings tab ( accessible in the Volumes page => Volume tab in FrontView ). The resync process will run in the background, and you can continue to use the ReadyNAS in the meantime.
