Unfortunately this has several causes, and often isn't easy to fix. 

  1. Do you have a backup of your files?
  2. Do you know of anything unusual that happened right before the problem occured?

1. Unfortunately no, i dont have backup of my files.

2: nothing as such, there were logs stating that HDD 4 need to be replaced (Disk: Detected increasing reallocated sector count: [13224] on disk 4 (Internal) [ST10000VX0004-1ZE101 ZA20CSVE] 269 times in the past 30 days. This condition often indicates an impending failure. Be prepared to replace this disk to maintain data).  we replaced the HDD with a new HDD, then restarted thatz it.

Are you certain the resync fullly completed before you restarted the NAS?  If it was still in process, that could explain what happened.  Note if the volume had been vertically expanded in the past, there would be multiple RAID groups that needed to be resynced.

 

There are two processes for disk replacement.  The first (which I always recommend) is to hot-swap the disks.  The second is to power down, swap the disks, and then power up.  No need to restart the NAS afterwards with either process.
