Check their support pages. Has something gone wrong with it ?

If you are doing data recovery on it, I think you will not find your answers in this forum.

The nas was taken out by over voltage, but disks are fine, but the owner tryed to recover, and firmware partition seems to be deleted, so i need to setup the array in r-studio but cant find the rigth disk order.

What will it cost to get remote sup on this case..

R-studio will not help. This NAS uses xFS system.

As far as I know, Synology doesn't use XFS file system. Normally it uses a type of
customized ReiserFS.
Either UFS Explorer pro or R-studio will help when you are going to do RAW recovery.
They won't reconstruct file system. Parameters: 64KB, Backward dyn. should work.
