New NV+ stuck at Booting....
Hi I have just got a new NV+ (well 2nd hand but new to me!) that came without any disks and have added 3 X 2TB disks to it. I have switched it on, can see it in Raidar and that and the front panel ...

Ok - some progress. here is what I have done and the results so far :
Pulled 2 of the 3 disks and did another factory default reset (without upgrading to the latest beta). Then instead of going into the setup, waited the 10 minutes and allowed it create using default settings and this time it actually created the C drive and booted up OK and shows 1.8TB Free of 1.8TB
So I am now planning to complete the setup process and then add the 2 extra disks - should these be added one at a time and be allowed to complete before adding the second one or can I add both at the same time ?
So it seems that it is either having one or both of these extra disks in during initial installation or the fact that I clicked into setup that caused the problem !
Thanks for everyone's help so far !
