Just bought an EX4, and I cannnot get the drives to format. I have 4 1TB WD Red drives installed correctly. The web interface works, and detects the model and serial numbers for each drive, but every time I try to go to the RAID page on the web interface, it automatically starts formatting the drives. I have let it sit for several hours, and it never gets beyond “Initializing: 0%”
What’s the deal? Do I have a defective drive that is tripping out the RAID driver or something? Any advice would be appreciated.
