LCD display replaceable?

It should be quite obvious that neither Netgear nor the former company Infrant produced the LC Displays (LCD = Liquid Crystal Display, LCD Display = Liquid Crystal Display Display) themselves.
On the other hand there's a shitload of LCDs of the same size by different manufacturers with all different connectors.
That means unless you have a good knowledge of electronics, you've got bad chances finding a compatible lcd.

Have you even tried asking the Netgear support about the LCD? Even if they can't/won't help you, it doesn't cost to ask and to me they have been very kind so far on every support request I sent to them.

The difficult thing is to determine in the fault is in the LCD or the information being sent to it. I have both LCDs and mainboards available if you are interested (hopefully I pluralized LCD properly). Send me a PM if you need more info.

I had a similar problem where my LCD was working fine, then I swiped my hand across it to wipe some dust off and the LCD went dead (not completely unlike your picture, although with fewer characters). For the record, I was standing on an anti-static mat and did not feel any static electricity when I touched the NAS.

I rebooted the NAS, with no success.
I shutdown the NAS, with no success.

My solution was to shutdown the NAS and unplug it, wait 5-10 seconds, plug it back in and turn on the NAS. This reset the LCD and it now works as well (perfectly) as it did before.

I hope this solution works for you. Good luck!

I am also having recent problem with the garbled display after updating to to the recent Radiator 4.1.8. Anybody else see similar problems?
