I'm glad you got the data off the disks. Try powering up the NAS without the disks, and see if RAIDar can find it.
It should discover it, and report a "no disks" status.
If that fails, there is likely something wrong with the chassis (though there's a chance it's the power brick).
If it succeeds, then a factory default is the right next step.

Hi Stephen,
Sorry for the late reply I was busy with the restore.
I had a closer look to the part number and it is RND2000-200EUS.So the firmware version should be 5.3.x but I can't check.
I tried to find out together with my daugther the error code but there is immediately the blinking backup led. We couldn't see any blinking error code. Do you think a restart with the factory defaults may work?
Over the weekend I have extracted all data and I am happy about that.
Thank you for your help and the hint with RLinux.

Thank you for your help.
RAIDar failed with no disks, so there is something wrong with the chassis.
Due to the NAS is 6 years old I will invest in a new one.
regards
Robert

The RN212 is the equivalent ReadyNAS in Netgear's current line-up. It is faster than your v2 (particularly on writes).
