Just unboxed my new EX4 today.
After having inserted the four new 6 TB WD RED discs I have also purchased, it was time for setup.
First off I had to set up a raid mode.
I chosed Raid 5 and went on. After formatting etc., the system returned to the menu, telling me that the setup was done.
But at the menu the Raid status still says “No Configured Volumes”. I´ve tried 4 times now, with the same result, and I´ve even tried to choose Spanning mode also - but nothing works. What is happening??
The firmware is updated to v.1.02.42 and I am apperantly not allowed to make a new update to the newer firmwares (buttons are faded).
Maybe you should try contacting WD’s Technical Support about this. You can do so either by phone or email.
