Setup old NAS units

I recently got my hand on a set of two Seagate NAS units and I want to set them up for home use (possibly to store and then get rid of a DVD collection). The problem I face is that they are still configured for the internet at the office they were previously at. Does anyone know how I can factory reset them and then set them up for home use?

 

More Info:

They both are already full of drives. The one on the left has Seagate NAS HDD drives (2 TB each) and the one on the right has Seagate Barracuda drives (2 TB each). If needed I have access to Windows, MacOS, or Ubuntu.
