Replacement drive help?
I have a ready nas NV+ and was experiencing issues with a dead drive. The 1TB drive was showing full and i only had 420gb of material on it. I have replaced the drive - and its still showing 0/931G...
I think you might be confusing shares with disks.
IF you did the normal ReadyNAS setup, then you are using XRAID. With 2 disks installed, this means your two disks are mirrored. Everything written to the NAS is written to both disks simultaneously. The disks work together so that your data is preserved even if one of them fails.
Log into frontview (https://nasname/admin), and see if the home page says "Volume C: Online, X-RAID..." on it. That will confirm if you are using XRAID.
Then click on the "volumes" button (middle left), and then "volume settings". See if it says "Status: Redundant" or not.
Let us know if you are seeing those things...
