Hello JennC,
Thanks for the answer but I got the data using Linux Reader.
Therefore I've tried to format the 2 drives with the Default factory boot mode but it was running for more than 24 hours and never finished.
I tried to format drive into my computer with windows disk manager and I succeed.
I assume the HDD are ok and the NAS should be dead.
Thanks for your time.
If you start up the NAS with no disks installed, does RAIDar see it? If not, you have a more basic hardware problem (perhaps a bad NIC) and the OS reinstall wouldn't help.
Check your warranty status right away - the ultra warranty is 3 years, and if you are lucky you might have a few weeks left.

I put one of the hard drive to my computer with a SATA to USB adapter and I manage to read data using linux reader.
Then I'm backuping the data to another place before going further.
I will try the NAS with no disk at all to see if it will be vsible.
