I suspect a hardware failure.
Try powering down the system, removing the disks (labeling by slot) and rebooting. See if you get the LED status for "no disks" that's listed above.
If you do, then if you have a spare disk, you should try a factory install using the boot menu, with only the spare in place, and see if that succeeds.
An alternative way to force the factory install is to wipe the spare disk first with WD's lifequard program (it has a write-zeros test - the "quick" version is enough to return the disk to an unformatted state). The system is designed to automatically do the factory install if the disk is blanks.
If you can't do the factory install, then check the warranty status. The hardware warranty is 5 years for the original purchaser. If you are covered, then contact support via my.netgear.com and ask for an RMA.
