3)I made a recovery USB flash drive with 6.2.4 FW and (without NTGR_DEBUG.txt) and "boot off USB"

Hello mrGarret,
Updating from a very very old firmware must have caused the problem. Like Sandshark said, it may be best to factory reset since you have backup of the data.

Hello mrGarret,
Can you try factory reset with just one disk? If you get the same problem, try another disk from the 4 existing ones. The idea is to find which disk would work and which would not.
