Your logs suggest that the volume was last mounted and written to around when you updated from 4.2.26 to 4.2.27. You certainly could try downgrading back to 4.2.26 if you wish.

  mdgm, sorry for the noob question but don't the volumes get mounted each time the NAS reboots? What do you mean when you say that was then when the volume was last mounted? Is it possible to unmount and remount the volume to fix the issue?

    It would be mounted each time it is booted but the log indicates that last happened back in June.
    
    If the services are stopped first then the volume could perhaps be unmounted and mounted, but a reboot would be easiest and the best way to do it.
