In case this happens to anyone with the same luck as me:

I connected to the drive from my windows network.  The web admin page for the NAS showed zero disks.  During storage, gravity managed to un-seat the SATA from the connector mounted on the case.  The drives are pushed onto the connector from the rear of the chasis.

The drives were re-seated on the connectors and the system was re-started.

The NAS was immediately detected and automatically configured.

Enabled DHCP server on internal network in WebAdmin (http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Network_Settings).  Verified that DHCP leases were issued in WebAdmin/Advanced/Network/DHCP Leases.

 Can see the storage device as a samba share from Kunbutu desktop but still not detected by lmce.

 No unknown devices in WebAdmin/Advanced/Configuration/Unknown Devices.

I have attached a NAS on eth1 (internal) but the device is not recognized.  There are no unrecognized devices in WebAdmin Advanced> Configuration > Unknown Devices.

Ther does'nt appear to be dhcp service on eth1?  Any ideas?

Thanks for your help and your patience.

 I will start a new thread, if I continue to experience problems with the NAS.

I executed the update query directly on the database and verfied that the row was updated.  I re-loaded the orbitor and now eth0 (dhcp) and eth1(static) are both recognized in WebAdmin. In the Advanced/Network/Network settings I was able the refresh the the IP on eth0.  So far so good.

 I reconnected my NAS on eth1 where I have media from a previous installation.  If the dhcp server is active on eth1, should'nt the system recognize the NAS instaneously or will this take sometime?

I found a very old post on a blog.  I don't know if it still applies or if it will lead to stability issues:

To recognize the second NIC:
UPDATE Device_DeviceData SET IK_DeviceData="eth0,dhcp|eth1,192.168.80.1,255.255.255.0" WHERE FY_DeviceDeviceData=32;

I ran the script which generated two error messages:
Stopping DHCP server - [FAIL]
Failed to send 'clear' to local ypserver RPC: Program not registeredUpdating passwd.byusid.
Followed by msg:  Now you can run ypinit -s dcerouter on all slave services.

In WebAdmin under Advanced/Network only eth1:1 (dhcp) and eth1 (static) were recognized.  No NIC were displayed in the device tree. The file /etc/network was re-written to eth1:1 (dhcp) and eth1 (stat).  I changed this back to eth0 (dhcp) and eht1 (static) and then restated the network to re-establish my internet connection.

When I first loaded the system, I originally had an Intel Gigbit NIC card.  After LinuxMCE installation and connecting a NAS to the internal NIC I realised that the NIC was'nt recoginized since the system failed to acknowledge the NAS.  On giving up getting that card to work , I installed the Realtek NIC.  I know this card is functional. 

How do I correct the database?.  Specifically how do I log into the database and what SQL statements do I need to execute? (The link did'nt provide enough information).

I made eth0 internal and eth1 external in the interfaces file.  When I swapped the NIC cards using WebAdmin, it caused the system to reboot.  The system then overwrote the interface file to eth1:1 to dhcp (external) and eth1 to static.

Its an ASUS AT5IONT-I motherboard with one integrated NIC and a second NIC installed on the PCI-e slot.

There two RTL811/8168BB NIC cards installed both running the r6168 driver.  I have changed /etc/network/interfaces file to reflect two nics (eth0 external DHCP and eth1 static).  In the Advance/Network/settings , Linuxmce recognizes only eth1 and it creates a virtual NIC at eth1:1.  My changes to etc/network/interface get re-wrtten on re-boot to eth1 and eth1:1 consistent with the settings in  Advanced/Network/Settings.  Both cards are functional as verfied by switching eth0 and eth1 in /etc/udev/rules'/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules.  What step am I missing?
