Terastation ts-xe4.0tl/r5 all drives gone and cannot get this back on line .
i purchases new drives but without the boot firmware on these new disk i cannot do anything.
Does anyone have any tricks or way to get these back on line
i downloaded a tftp boot recovery with no luck unless i am doing something wrong , i have laptop set to the 192.168.11.20 network address and trying to connect

i thought it was the unit and  went and purchased on ebay a unit with no drives Terastion ts-xe12tl/r5 just in case and same condition so i am not sure if i am the issue here

Any help is appreciated , unless there is a way to buy these drives with the firmware on them allready

any help is apprecaited

also tested with 192.168.11.1 as well no luck
i dont understand why we cannot have a boot file to image these to any hard drive we want to 

There's a pinned thread in the storage section that describes how to get boot images and restore the stock firmware:
