Failed RAID 10

I have four WD 3TB Red NAS drives in a RAID 10. They serve as the DVR for security cameras. They can record a month worth of footage, then video has to be deleted to make room for more. Recently, I forgot to delete video and the hard drives overloaded. Now, when the RAID controller goes through rebuild, I get a message that says "Failure to initialize enclosure" and also get error messages about one of the disks not being recognized. I thought maybe if I swapped the order they were in, maybe that would change something. Still no luck. Any ideas?

If you are getting an error that one of the disks is not recognized, it's possible you have one or more hard drive failures. Locate which drive is not being recognized and have it thoroughly tested and if need be replaced. Rebuilding an array depends upon the hardware or software that is controlling the array and how they have it configured to rebuild the array.

You can take the drive out and put it into other computer to see that computer can recognize the drive or not.
If yes, format it and put back the DVR system, and use it to rebuild the array.
If no, you need buy the same type HDD to rebuild the array too.
