RAIDar can find the NAS when it has booted from the USB, but it says that the model is "None", serial is "N0NE000~", Status in "Tech Support Mode", and debud code is "TELNET Mode". When it hasn't booted to the USB RAIDar can't find it.
Try accessing the NAS using Telnet. If you are using a windows PC, I suggest you use the Putty client for that.

Make sure you select "telnet" as the protocol.
When you connect to the NAS, log in as root. The password is infr8ntdebug.
Once logged in, enter these commands.
rnutil chroot
lsblkIf lsblk works, then post the output here, and we can proceed with attempting to manually mount your data volume.
Also, The firmware I have on the USB is OS-6.10.10 but radar reports 6.2.4

What firmware was the NAS running before the failure?
Did you notice the update instructions here:
ReadyNAS 102, 104, and 2120 systems must not be updated directly to 6.10.x from 6.3.x or older firmware. They must first be updated to either 6.2.5 or 6.3.5, then to 6.5.2, and then to 6.10.x.
I don't remember, I think 6.4
It has been a long time since I have been in the admin page in a long time
