How do I fix a capacity problem?

Hi All -

 

I recently bought a new diskless ReadyNAS 516. Since then, I started with 3 x 4TB drives as a X-RAID set.  Later on I added 2 previously used 4TB drives to slots 4 and 5. They are the exact make and model and on the compatabilty list. I formatted the two additional drives in the NAS via the admin page.  rebooted. NAS sees all 5 drives, on the device all drives have blue LEDs but only the top three flash and seem active. X-RAID is still just showing 3 disks in the RAID. Here is a screen shot.

 

What do I need to do to get the X-RAID to use all 5 drives?
