Can a "downgrade" to a smaller drive cause my NV+ problems ?

Hi marto73,
The original tb size was
1: 1 tb
2: 0.5 tb
3: 0.5 tb
4: 0.5 tb
the 1 tb drive was the 1st 1 tb I was planning to use to upgrade all drives to 1 tb. But since the 1 tb drive broke ater 1 year (Seagate Barracuda), I put my old 0.5 tb drive back in to replace the 1 tb broken drive.
Unfortunately, I can't get to the logs, since the front panel says:
Booting
Disk 1 sync
RAIDar came up once and showed the same configuration as the LCD panel said, but RAIDar hasn't since come back to login.
I have another 1 tb ext drive that I had the NV+ saving to, but it's in EXT3 format. In addition, I'm not sure when the firmware problem started, because lately I've been using iTunes and iTunes Match, so I'm not sure of the integrity of the backup.
Thank you for the assistance. Please advise me what is the next logical course of action.
