Maybe try testing the new disks in a Windows PC (powering down, and labeling by slot). While doing that, see if RAIDar finds the NAS (showing a "no disks" status).

Thanks for your response.
No, RAIDar can't find the NAS even without the disks.
I just tried with only one small 500Gb disk, formated via PC:
- The lights seems OK (power and disk1 steady)
- Both ethernet ports LED links steady green
- Last connection, 2 days ago when I perform a "Factory Reset"

OK. Are you able to reach http://nas-ip-address/admin with the 500 GB drive installed? Use the real IP address of course.

Nope, no IP assigned.
As the image shows, the last connection to the router was 2 days ago while I'm perfoming a factory reset/OS reinstall.
If I scan the network the NAS doesn't show. Not even in the router "attached devices" list.
Thank you for your time, anyways.

That image is from your router UI?
You are seeing green status on both ethernet ports - do you have bonding set up? Have you tried disconnecting one of the two ports?
