I swapped the disks in my LinkStation.

Hello,

I swapped the 1TB disks which came in the system with two 6 TB disks, but the system doesn't seem to want to come back up.

I reset from the web interface and powered the LinkStation off. Then I exchanged the disks and turned it back on. The power LED at the front started blinking about 5x per second and continued like that. The web interface never came back.

I tried powering it off several times and some of the times the power LED would blink red 7 times at a time. I tried resetting to factory settings and it doesn't seem to come back either. I'm looking for it using the NAS Navigator2. I've removed the new disks and reinserted them to make sure there was no contact problem.

Now, if I power it off using the switch, it doesn't power off. It's been blinking a shade of white/blue/purple that I assume means it's working or something, but I've left it more than 10 hours and there doesn't seem to be any change.

I appreciate the help in advance.

Thanks,


- Daniel
