I took the drives out, tried to reinstall the OS but I'm not sure if that worked
It can't work, because the function reinstalls the OS onto the drives.

I reinstalled one of the drives but that did not work. I swapped it out with the second drive and am able to access it from my PC
That suggests a problem with the first drive. After the backup completes you might want to test it with seatools in a PC.

but the power light is still flashing and ReadyCloud access is still unavailable.
Can you reach the web admin page (either use https://nas-ip-address/admin, or get there via RAIDar). It might also be useful to download the log zip file.

When I try to access the admin page through RAIDar, I am prompted to enter a username and password but I can't get in.
