Ah, so you have just the two disks in the NAS.
Yes, you don't have 4k sector partition alignment. A factory reset (wipes all data, settings, everything) on 4.1.7 or later is needed to get 4k sector partition alignment. Clearly you last did a factory reset on older firmware (also your logs back a long time before 4.1.7 was released and I see in the logs an update to 4.1.5 so you last did a factory default on 4.1.4 or earlier).
Your logs suggest that disk 2 was a disk that needed replacing as far back as May 2010. The first reallocated sectors for the disk were back in September 2009.
Disk 1 would have needed replacing from July 2014 with the first reallocated sector occurring back in March 2014.
Some ISPs block the internal email server of the ReadyNAS so you may need to configure the email alerts to use e.g. a Gmail account.
