Problem ReadyNas NV+ Sparc. Volume Dead
Dears all, After more than three week without accesing ReadyNas (but all the time on), i had a very bad surprise. When i tryed to access through RAIDar wome wrong appear, and i was not able to acce...
You likely will need to forcibly power down. Try holding the switch down for several seconds, if that doesn't help you'll need to pull the plug.
Then I suggest removing the disks (labeling by slot) and powering up diskless. Then see if you get a correct IP address for your network, and if RAIDar discovers the NAS with "no disks" status.
While the disks are out, try testing them in a Windows PC with vendor tools (Seatools for Seagate, Lifeguard for Western Digital). Don't initialize them or format them of course - the vendor tools can find/test the disks even though windows doesn't recognize them.
If you want to put them back in the NAS, make sure it is powered down and that you preserve the original slot order.

Thanks for the prompt answer.
i turned off with the back side switch. turn on and i can access to my files, but on the frontend still appears "not volume".
I executed a volume check. I will see.
Thanks again
Something is still wrong.
I could access to my shared files through the Raidar, but only one time.
Now i can see the folders when i go with Raidar but i can not access. All lights are green.
In frontend, the light Volume is Yellow. It says is not active. 0% busy.
What is The Volume exactly
I have four HDD in raid 5

The volume is the RAID-5 array.

What happens when you enter \\nas-ip-address in windows file explorer?
goes directly to /shares and says "No shares currently accessible"
If a use //nasip/admin goes to frontview
