ReadyNas NV+ V2 - Main volume not found (volume scan failed to run properly)
I have a ReadyNas NV+ V2. 4x2TB disks installed, 2 external USB drives for backup. Everything was running ok, then I shut it down and physically moved the NAS to a new location, new network. After...
Hi borisw37,
Were the drives removed then re-inserted? Kindly download the logs and send it to us.

Thank you,

Hi borisw37,
I have seen events of disk failure dated last December, January and February. When you replaced these aformentioned disks (1&2) was the volume rebuilt and its data accessible afterwards? I suggest that you contact our support team to further check your system and they'll try to help you recover your data. Expect that there will be a fee for the said process.
Kind regards,

Thank you for taking a look at the logs. Yes, my ReadyNAS would ocassional claim that one of the disks has failed, even though all of the SMART parameters were fine and the disk would work just fine (in an exteranl enclosure). So I had to occasionally remove/reinstall the "failed" disks and let NAS rebuild the volume.
Since I do have everything backed up from the NAS, is there anything quick / easy I can try for ReadyNAS to see the entire volume. I'm a bit oprehensive to spend any more money on the system since it's been a bit of a problem child from day 1.
Thank you,
Boris.
Hi borisw37,
You can try to mount your volume into a Linux machine and we have threads here in the community that could help. Since you have back up of every content or data from your ReadyNAS, why won't you just start over with a new set of drives or perhaps a new ReadyNAS system?
