Re: How to format a disk to use it
hovering on the disk icon it appears a tooltip as captured in the screenshot below. It says "To use the slot, delete the pool" but I don't know if I ever created a pool...

Re: How to format a disk to use it
not sure .. as said .. best to contact QNAP ..
you also sadly fell for the EFAX drives, you should replace them asap (contact WD and demand a WD Plus swap due to false advertisement)

Re: How to format a disk to use it
I opened a ticket, as suggested, they made me update the firmware like 3 times, now there's the latest 5.0.1 one, then asked to open a remote session. The tech solved the issue very quickly but without going into details, just told me they fixed the raid config files. Maybe it wasn't something I could fix or figure out out myself, I don't know.
Regarding the efax drives, well, I don't know if here in Italy, and after 3 years from the scandal, it makes sense to contact them.
thanks anyway!
