Did it come up Normal?
IF NOT Pull power again and DO the factory reset again

Their was 1 user that had a second drive fail 2-3 days after the first one. When this happens you are SOL.
This is a lesson learned. All though we use raids that have protection/redundency, Backups are still required.
There are compaines that specialize in raid recovery, and can provide quick turn around for $$$$$$$
