If you plug in the drives and start it up, it should reformat, and create an xraid2 array with 2 TB of space.
You can then log into the web ui, and complete the setup.
But you might consider installing 6.1.6 beta, and then doing another factory reset. Netgear has changed the btrfs filesystem settings some, and you might as well start with their latest settings (which requires a factory reset).
You can set up readycloud after the initial setup. You will likely find that the "discovery" process doesn't work, but in fact you don't need that.
