Still confused using "que"

Yo tengo dos preguntas para ustedes. Primera: ¿Por qué está la palabra "días" allí? Segundo: ¿Está "ni" actuanding como la palabra "neither" en ingles?
Podría manejar 546 días de blando confinamiento (ponerme al día con todos esos libros que tengo y que siempre traté de leer) pero no cuatro ni cinco años.
I could handle up to 546 days of soft confinement (catch up on all those books I own and which I have always intended to read) but not four to five years.

"Ni" means "nor" in this sentence. "But not four nor five years."
"Días" - I'm not sure I understand your question, since that word is obviously in the sentence to mean "days", as in "546 days".
