Yes I do have a full backup, so that's not a problem. :)
True to form, soon after I posted, I tried the Frontview->System->Update->Factory Default again, with RAIDar running this time and it worked. After going through the motions though the #4 Drive LED was blinking so I assumed it was a failed drive.
I shut down the NAS and I replaced the drive with another Seagate ST2000DL003-9VT166 (pulled from the PC downstairs and known working) and it came up and said 'Disk 4 Sync' but a short time afterwards the message disappeared and the #4 Drive LED started blinking again. Slowly at first, but then it increased in frequency to about once per second. Is this normal? Is the drive simply syncing or do I have a failed SATA connection?
I have finally been able to access Frontview and I am in the process of reconfiguring the NAS.
On the LCD it displays the IP address followed by C: 5.4/5.4T Free, but in Volumes->Volume Settings all drives state 1859GB Allocated except for drive 4 which has the 'locate' button greyed out and nothing about being allocated or otherwise.
Help!
