      That sounds serious. :O 

       

      Is it "oh yeah, known problem, don't use iSCSI, you are f*cked but paid support can help you recover the data" or "Have not seen this particular sequence earlier, maybe support'll know"........?

        Good news! 

        I switched off NAS. Took out the drives and went to bed. And the good news part:

         

        This morning I booted the NAS without drives.

        Then I switched off the NAS.

        Put in the (3) drives in again (in random order).

        Switched on the NAS and it magically works again! 

        Log: Disk: Disk in channel 1 (Internal) changed state from ONLINE to RESYNC.
