Pulling the USB drive cable didn't change the symptoms. Still couldn't access the Admin Pages. Also ended up having to rebuild the USB drive (write zeros and reformat).
Forcilbly shutting down and restarting the RN516 solved the issue. Access the adming pages is re-esthablished and backup to rebuild USB drive works.
Still don't know what caused the (null)+1 message on the front display. Is there any way to find out what caused this, so I can try to prevent it from happening in the future?

6.5.0. I switched off backup before hot disk swap and restarted backup after disk was re-synced. So I'm assuming it started with doing a full backup to USB. I haven't used RAIDar sofar and am not familiar with it. The website running on the RN516 is still accessible ( http://fotografeer.nl ). And I can still access the system over SSH. When I try to access the admin page, I always end up at the message "ReadyNAS Admin Page is offline". I now physically disconnected the USB drive to see if that will stop the backup processes and bring back control.

Disable and re-enable the device. For me it worked :)
