Hi
The NAS is resync my new disks I put in yesterday.
So now when the resync is done I have made a backup job for my files to other disk at network.
After that is complete, I am going to restore to factory default on nas, and then put in the three 4TB disk I want to use in X-Raid.
And see if that help me out.
If it does help I will recover my files to the X-Raid when Resync is completed on the three disks.

It'd be more efficient to power down the NAS, install the final set of disks, and then use the boot menu to do a factory default.
That will also completely reinstall the OS, so your issue with HTTPs settings should be resolved.
Note that "available apps" can take some time to show up. You can alternatively download the apps from apps.readynas.com and install them manually. I also recommend checking out www.rnxtras.com - there is a small charge, but you'll get support in return.
Don't over-do it with apps - your RN104 has a relatively slow CPU and much less RAM than current models. And older apps can destabilize your system.

So, I dont need to backup my data on the disk?
I just can wait until tomorrow, and then put in my new disk, and make a factory default run on the NASand after that I have my data left on my disk?
If I dont need to do a backup of the data on the disk now then I be happy by that, and that save som time.
But I dont want to loose that data on that disk, But I did think if I do a factory default setup I would loose the data on the disk there is in now?
Yeah, I currently have 0 apps on the mashine, and only use 3 apps on it in the past: PHP, MySQL, and phpMyAdmin.

Yes. So you do need a backup.
What I was meaning to say is that if you do a factory reset with one disk in place, and then add the others you will end up doing 3 resyncs - each one taking longer than the last one.
It's faster to do the reset with all disks in place, as then you do only one sync when the volume is created.
But either way you will ned to restore your data from backup after you do the reset.
- Kiptanoi_NewAug 01, 2019AspirantAh, yeah, I dont think the backup is done untill I got the new disk tomorrow anyway 🤣
But thanks for the answers and help so far :)
