Is the I.P. of the NAS in the same range as your PC?
If not, you will need to either do an OS Re-install or
temporarily set the I.P. address of the NIC in your PC to be in the same range as your NAS, login to your NAS, change the settings for the NAS from static back to DHCP and then change the NIC settings for your PC back to what they were before.

The Ready NAS has a different IP address but I am aware they need to be same as the laptop. I don’t know how to complete a OS re install and believe I would struggle with your other option. Is there any information you could provide that clearly demonstrates each step you proposed in great detail?

Can you tell us what firmware version RAIDar reports first?
The boot-menu options depend a bit on the NAS model (sparc-based v1 or arm-based v2) and the firmware version will tell us for certain what you have.
