It looks like that the first set of 5 disk is different from second set.
In the first set there is no disk with 8 partitions also disk UUID's differ from second set as well as free space.
So this can not be the same disks in these two trials
Did you use different sets of disks ???

Furthermore /dev/sdc seems to be defective.

Please also post output of dmesg

jocko are you kidding? :sob no, these are the same 5 HDDs:
First post from left to right: 1,2,3,4,5
Second post from left to right: 5,4,3,2,1
(or maybe the second is the first and the first is the secondo... damn, anyway, them are the exactly 5 disks swapped in order, now i dunno which post is the post of the correct disks order... i think the second)

just for knowledge: i do not trust in the fault of disk 3 becouse 2 days ago i made a test (remember?) i remove these 5 disks and putted inside a second 5Big N2, powered on and transfer file (in<->out) for almost all the day.
if the 3rd disk was faulty... I think I would have noticed... becouse them are a RAID, am I right? (now, i don't remember if them are in raid 5 or 6 do not rememberrrrrrr :sob )

The second test that i made (even 2 days ago), was that to bring the second Nas 5disks and put inside the first Nas. And from gdisk -l /dev/sdc we give the same error.
It seems that whatever disks you put in, it gives the error to disk 3 (sdc)

[fvdw]

I think I see what is going on.
The ata-1 link remains down. That means the first 3 disks (counted from left to right seen from the back) are not seen by the kernel. Have a look in dmesg output, you will only find sdd and sde.

gdisk seems to make a mistake and it appears that sda detected by gdisk is the same disk as sde detected by gdisk (compare the disk uuid and partition tables and free space).
Also sdb = sdd
sdc is not found as there are only two disks avaialable as ata1 link is down.
This explains why the disk uuid are different in trial 1 and 2 by rversing the disk order.
So output of gdisk is misleading
Because ata.1 link remains down the disks connected to ata1.01 ata.02 and ata.03 are not found
Disk connected to ata1.3 (port sd 0:3:0:0) is real sda, this disk is used to load the firmware. As it is not found the nas cannot load the firmware.
This also why you get only last two leds get solid the first 3 disks are not recognized.

Now the question is why does ata1 remains down? Could be defect of the main board or a disk malfunction.
If it is the first then it is game over (sorry) if it is the second than replace the faulty disk could solve it.
However because you have put the 5 disk in the other 5big2 and they ran ok I am afraid it is option 1.

What you can do is put only one disk in most lefthand slot (seen from the back) preferable the original disk of slot 1 and load standalone kernel and look in dmesg output if the the disk is found. If not also gdisk will not find the disk.
If the disk is not found you can try another one and if result is the same then for sure your motherboard has a problem.

Remark: the disks are connected to the mainboard with sata cable, you could check if these cables are properly connected. However as all three disk are not detected it is probably not the cause of the malfunction

ps2. I am fvdw not Jocko ;)

damn, sorry @fvdw,what a pleasure to see you :hail
ok i'm trying dmesg, on each hdd individually on the first slot to the left.

UPDATE: with only the first disk on the first left slot, the console can't find u-boot... :sob
