Hi,
I had the same problem. Netgear RN10200 + 2x WD RED 3TB, connected via network yellow cable directly to my PC.
Power Led was always blinking and I had no Raidar detection. So I was unable to access my new RAID system.
I've made a factory restore with one disk inserted. you should get leds blinking for about 10-15 min. After tht DISK 1 ld wil be solid and Power Led maybe blinking.
I'v put PC's IP address on automatic, not static IP!... and I accessed the RN102 using http://nas-xx-xx-xx where xx-xx-xx are the last digits of the NAS MAC address.

Enjoy! Netgear has also a very good Customer Support. I solved it trough them.
Good Luck
