Tried the reseat although I had already tried that before and no change. It feels like the drives are seating, and I can hear them spin up.
I have 2 other disks I can try however I do not know what might be on them. Assume it doesn't matter, that if they weren't setup by this unit the boot process will ignore whatever is on them and attempt to set them up as it did when I first started it with the new disks?
Tried both of them in slot 1, slots 2-4 empty. No change.
Not sure if it can run with a single disk so tried with a disk in slots 1 and 2, slots 3 and 4 empty. No change.
Swapped disk 1 and 2, no change.
Scanning the network with Fing I can see the device, and scanning the device shows having only Telnet service available. I am able to get a login prompt with Telnet, other than that the device is doing nothing. The only way to power down is to pull the plug.
