It appears that disk 2 failed during the resync. It might be possible to remount the array manually (using the original disk 1).
If you like, I can take a look at the logs. You can send me a private message (PM) using the envelope icon in the upper right hand corner of the forum page. Include a link to the logs (dropbox, etc), making sure the permissions are set so anyone with the link can download.

Thank you StephenB . Logs sent, appreciated.
I tried rebooting with Disk No. 1, 3, 4 present, omitting No. 2 which had reported a failure. Neither the original 3TB or replacement (synced) 12TB drive will mount into as original volume, reporting Remove inactive volumes to use the disk. Disk #1, 3, 4."
I did not have SSH enabled before this happened and of course now can't activate it. I'm prepared to boot into tech support mode as needed; I'm piecing the procedure together from prior posts (of yours StephenB, thanks again) so I hope I have it right. RAIDar reports JRE issues with my M4 MBP, so I'll get it installed on a PC laptop to access the NAS as needed. When I do, it sounds like I'll need to run smartctl to check the disks, unless there's another place you think I should start or try.
Thanks again!
