Netgear Duo storage capacity
Hi. I have bought a Netgear Duo with 2x1tb hard drives installed and I want to ask a dumb question. The NAs is up and working, RaidR reports both drives are in, working and available. So why is ...

Again, you want to do that with one disk installed.
Okay got a problem again, sorry.
I installed one drive and it said it created a partition which was fine and all seemed. Okay. After it had finished and I had left it another 5 mins, I turned it off and put in the other drive.
Now I get the following told that I only have a single drive. I cannot use the URL tag here for some reason but if you want to see pics of what the NAS is saying copy and paste the image links below:

These also show what Raidr is reporting.
Does this mean i need to take the drives out (again) but this time wipe them using my PC or is this a sign of another issue I am having?
Sorry for so many questions but this is all over my head and I am struggling here sadly.
Thanks
Max
