Guys {elation},
I waited over 30 hours but the NAS just sat there with the LCD displaying booting so then I gave in and pulled the Drive in Bay 1. I repowered and it went through the same boot routine but then jumped into check FS and was at 5 % in just a few minutes. This morning when I came down the NAS had booted completely and advised me I was missing a drive which I have promptly replaced :smileyvery-happy:
RAIDar is showing me status and firmware (4.1.14)
Resynch is 5% advanced with a finish time in about 8 hours
Thank you all for the comments...they pointed the way and gave me the confidence to be patient.
It helped that nothing critical on the NAS had not been backed up so I wasnt stressing about loss ...but looking through the files I am glad I have them all back.
Thank you once again

Hi TeMorituriNZ,
I apologize for the wrong info I gave you previously about getting the logs. Anyhow, can you confirm if have 4 drives on your system? Did you also check the health of the rest of the drives?
Kind regards,
