It isn't clear from your post whether you're using xraid or flexraid at the moment.
If your using xraid then you'll need to factory default ( can be done in Frontview), then you will have a 10 minute window during which you need to use Raidar ( the PC utility) to discover the NAS and select flexraid.
Once you have done this you can manipulate your volumes as you wish and it should be easy to set up 2 volumes as you propose.
I think the reset description you are referring to is the boot menu method for doing a factory default.
