Unable to delete volume
I just got the F5-221 and initialized it with 4 hdds so far. It automatically initialized into RAID 6 but I want it in RAID 5. The system has finished the initial synchronization but I still am unable to delete the volume. When I select the volume and select delete, it says it is deleting, disappears and immediately reappears as "good." How can I delete the volume so I can recreate a RAID 5 volume?

Re: Unable to delete volume
Either do it through SSH or pull all the drives & format them on a PC.
When you start the process again, start with just one drive in the NAS for the Initialization Wizard.
One set up, install two more of the drives & the RAID 5 option should be available to choose.
After the RAID 5 is setup, add that last drive & add it as you want to use it.
