"OS reinstall" did the trick.

I will try that.
Right now I have different poblem: a "shutdown -r now" not only restarted the system but apparently sent the attached UPS (APC Back-UPS 650) into a frenzy-state switching into battery mode and then cutting off the power in mid boot. Now the device is bricked with a blinking power button.
That is one of the weirdest things I have seen for a long time. There is no doubt that the shutdown sequence triggered something in the UPS but I have no idea what and how.
Anyway this is way beyond the OP.
You might need to back up the NAS and rebuild it from scratch.

My idea was to try a Bootmenu > "OS reinstall" with one of the RAID 1 disks, leaving the second disk as a spare backup. That way I maybe get access to the disk content again and could so a backup over the network.
It is not so easy to mount the Raid disks directly to another machine, there is some mdadm stuff necessary.
