Is it possible that that tray is bad somehow?
This isn't a symptom I've seen posted before, but it does sound like something isn't quite right with the disk tray. I'm not sure exactly what would cause this particular symptom - though it would somehow linked to not having a solid connection to the SATA or power connector on the disk.
The part number is RND4TRAY1-10000S, which might help googling. They are hard to find. Newer trays have a square latch button, the older design with the circular button tended to jam. Both will work.
Also, sometimes you will see older ReadyNAS sold for parts. So perhaps look for that also. Note that rackmount ReadyNAS use a different tray design, so those won't work in your NVX. But Pro, Ultra, Duo v1, Duo v2, NV+ v1, NV+ v2 trays will all fit.
