ReadyNAS 104 will not shutdown
ReadsyNAS 104 4 x 2TB Unit will not shutdown or reboot even if I leave it for 12 hours. I have to pull the plug and restart it this way - not a good option. Any ideas? No apps running, nothing ...

Sorry - I was assuming that you were running the disk test from the web UI - but you were running the boot menu.

The only way to go out from this step I believe is power off the NAS pulling again the power plug
I suggest

-downloading the logs again, and taking a look at the SMART statistics
-scheduling an on-line disk test for each volume (which will reduce performance a bit, but will keep your data available).
-disable disk spindown (if it is enabled). The drives will spin down during the on-line disk test (surprising but true), which will slow the test down.
Are you running plex? (I know you said "no apps" - just want to confirm).
