ReadyNAS 314 says "Volume data is degraded", but no errors in logs or disk reports
I have a RN31400. In the web interface, Admin page, System tab, it says "Status: Degraded". It's been saying that for a while. In the Volumes tab, it shows I have one RAID 5 volume with 3 disks...
You only have 3 of your 4 disks installed. That's why it is showing degraded. If the disk you removed is faulty you'd need to add a new good disk. Until a replacement disk is added and the resync completes your volume will remain degraded and very vulnerable to any disk failing.
Is your backup up to date? If not, you may wish to update that as your next step.
I have emailed the zip of the logs according to the instructions in your signature. Thanks!

Thanks so much for your help.

Wow, I have no memory of a 4th disk, but my Newegg order history from years ago does show 4 disks, not 3. What log helps show volume information like how many disks are expected, and so on?
Logs like mdstat.log for example.
Ah, thanks.
