I just started getting this error on my DNS-320 Sharecenter. I took the HD out and placed it in the computer and it works fine. Is there anywhere else I go check for a better detailed message or anything else I can try to get this HD working in the Sharecenter again? (HD is a Seagate Barracuda)
Thanks

You've not given a lot of information so don't expect an exact reply.
First up. Since you can read the drive on your computer make a backup of it - copy all data to another drive.
Then you can replace the drive in the DNS-320 and reformat it - this will show up any physical problems with the drive.
If it reformats correctly, copy your data back and test its working.
Make sure you have a backup of *all* data on the drive.

When the drive is connected to the computer, the BIOS can recognize it, so I'm assuming I can get the data back, but I haven't tried it yet. From my understanding, the ShareCenter formats the drive in a non-NTFS or FAT32 format - I think it used a linux format. So I haven't gone as far as trying to retrieve the data yet.
I'm hoping there are some other system tools that I can run to diagnose what's wrong with the drive? Or if there is anywhere else in the logs that will provide me more information that I can post here and use to diagnose it. Short of the one message 'Volume 1 Has crashed", I don't see anything anywhere.

If you don't have a backup of your data, I suggest trying one of the applications on this sticky post (http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=41400.0) to recover your data. Once your data is backed up, you will be in a position to reformat the HDD if your diagnosis/repair fails.

I had exactly the same issue. I have configure 1 drive (Samsung 1TB 7200rpm) as Volume_1. I managed to copy 800 Gb data to it, than after a reboot drive simply dissabeared, and under RAID configuration I could see again "Set RAID type and format"
It means drive and file system were cleared. I could not read the drive with my Win7 PC, but this was not important, because I had a backup. Files system was ext3 anyway
Why this happened? How can I count on this device in the future. This is not a case when disk fails, disk is fine. I have put it back to my PC, and it is working fine.
I can configure raid with 2 disks, but what if volume dissapear again? RAID is a solution if disk fails, but if file system....
This was the reason that I updated to 2.02. Now I have cross site action detected error...
Totally f...ed up!

Does anyone know if there is a way to mount a ext2 drive in OS X? I tried MacFuse with fuse-ext2, but I keep getting a access denied when trying to mount the drive. Any other ideas?
