I've tried to send the command Ide reset with only one disk in the NAS and the problem is the same, I don't manage to initialize disk. The disk seems to spin up because I'm hearing something.
I agree with Jocko. It must be a hardware issue. This because if your able to initialize the disks once it can not be a software issue otherwise you would never be able to initialize the disks.
Agreed that your power supply should be strong enough to start a nas with only one disk. 80 watts is sufficient for 1 disk. If all 5 disks start simulanuously its another story, certainly if the new disks draw more current then the old ones and are exceeding the capacity of the power supply. This could be a reason why you have this problem when all 5 disk are installed. But you also have it with only one disk installed, that makes the proper function of your power supply a suspect, or what Jocko said, a problem on the main board of the nas. There are two ways to find out if the power supply has a problem, replace it by another one or measure voltage under load. Be aware that measuring voltage without load is not a good way as the unit may fail only when it has to supply current.
Ps1 If you use the old 1.5 TB disk do you have the same problem ?
Ps2. That you can install our firmware only on most lefthand side disk is normal, its how we designed our firmware for multi disks nas
