OK. I finished adding each drive, one at a time, and everything got added and expanded properly.
Then this morning -- before I placed any data on the readyNAS, I decided to reboot to make sure everything was working properly.
It wouldn't come up in my browser, so I launched RAIDar, and sure enough, I still have a corrupt root. Now, I don't know what to do from here. I've spent nearly two weeks waiting for data to copy, RAIDs to rebuild, etc -- all for something that should just work properly.
2TB drives are cheap (mine were ~$140 per drive), and available everywhere. I shouldn't need to feel like an early adopter by doing something the system was supposedly designed to do. All this shouldn't have even happened from the beginning.
