Important: Removing or reinserting drives incorrectly can risk data loss. Note the drive order and do not initialize the NAS during this process.
- Power off your NAS and remove all drives. Important: Note the drive order for reinstallation.
- Power on the NAS without any disks inserted. Wait until you hear a short beep, then a long beep, before proceeding.
