My device is formating two brand new 6TB drives and the blue power diode is flashing.How many hours to complete formatting?

It's been a while since I've done that on an RN200 NAS, so I'm not sure. The process involves copying every sector on the from one disk to the other disk, so it will take a while.
You should be able to log into the web ui ( https://nas-ip-address/admin ) and see the estimated completion time.
