When you use the scratch disk the credentials you would need would be the default credentials for OS6 which are what you mentioned. You need to confirm that the unit is running 6.2.3 or later and if not update the firmware and confirm that the firmware update is successful. Then power down and remove the scratch disk.
As for your old array the password should be what you had set on the old NAS. The default admin password for your old NAS was 'netgear1' (no quotes). However SMB access for the admin user would not be available till the admin password was changed. You should be able to access the web admin page with the admin credentials you used on the old NAS.
If you can't login to the web admin page when booted from the disks from the old NAS we would need to remotely access your system. However that kind of support on the weekend requires an OnCall support contract.
