Does it power on when the disks are removed?

If it does, then try erasing the disks by putting them in a Windows PC and usings vendor tools (seatools or WDC's Lifeguard) to erase the disks.  The tests that do that are either called "erase disk" or "write zeros".  Don't format them.  Then put them back into the NAS and power it up - the NAS should then do a factory install.

it does not power on without the drives 

and it does not respond when i press the power button

Then something failed.  It could be the power adapter - you might consider a risk-buy of a replacement.  You can find compatible adapters for about $30 USD.

Does anything happen when you plug the (powered) AC adapter into the unit?  Do any LEDs flash (including NIC LEDs)?
