Yes, both. When I added the 4th disk, it did a resync

 

When it was done and I was able to log into the interface again, I had a warning that all 4 disks were inactive.

 

I stupidly decided to remove the 4th disk again and now it's doing a resync again...which will apparently take ~80hrs

 

I was thinkining I may have to call Netgear for this already but I'll wait and see if anyone else responds

 

thank you!

Not the best idea.  But the fact that it is resyncing is encouraging.  I think it suggests that there's a good chances of getting your data back with minimal loss.
