Hello norliss,
Do you have scratch disk that you can try alone with the chassis? Maybe that will help.
You can only use the disks on another ReadyNAS NV+ sparc-based chassis if you are trying to retrieve the data. Also, the disks you removed from the old chassis should be inserted to their respective bays, do NOT swap them as the order is important. As always, we strongly recommend to always have full backup, storing important files to just one device is not a good idea. It may be hard to get another unit of this NV+ sparc-based as this model joined EOL devices few years ago.
Regards,
