My Pegasus R4 shows a red power button after the orange (boot up). The hard drives show full activity after boot up but cannot get unit to be seen on the software. I have tried rebooting it by pressing the power button or disconnecting power countless time and nothing changes. I have replaced the hard drives with new ones (WD NAS red drives). Have not seen anything on the forum or google that shows an answer to my question.

Thanks.

Sorry, I did power off the system by holding the power button for like 30 secs. Once it comes up it goes to RED after the boot sequence.
