ReadyNAS104 - "READYNAS does not detect any discs"
I've had two 14Tb drives inserted into my ReadyNAS104, working fine, under, I think X-RAID (the top of the four options to the left of the Volume screen).
I went to shut the NAS down as the power needed to be turned off in my house. The software warned me that without a volume, all my settings would be lost. Rather than risk the power just being cut, I accepted the warning, and powered down.
On power up, "READYNAS does not detect any discs"
It suggests swapping them in the bays, and trying again, which I've done, to no avail.
Have I, once again, lost all that data? (It's backed up, but that's not the point).

I've cold- and hot-swapped the two discs multiple times. They never get seen (except briefly on the front panel display of the ReadyNAS.
I've recreated my account, and now the ReadyNAS web interface is saying "No volumes exist, select discs to create a volume", but it doesn't show either of the inserted discs in the graphic, nor will it let me click on "New Volume".I tried a reboot with just the first (original) disc, in the hope that it was the one with the account details I'd set up. That seemed to work, albeit with the single disc showing in red. I added the second disc, and now have it working (and visible on the network) as before.
However, should I still be creating a "Volume"? I have no option to do that (the "New Volume" button" doesn't respond).
I am worried that the next power-down will result in the same issue.

X-RAID only supports one volume.
