Netgear ReadyNAS 104 won't power up.
On Sunday at 3:15 pm I got an email notification that reads "Detected high spin retry count: [262144] on disk 1 (Internal) [TOSHIBA DT01ACA200, Y2S3T8DAS]. This condition often indicates an impendin...
I decided to risk the $26 for the new power supply. Got it today and it started right up with the new power supply so case is solved. Bad power supply.
OK I pulled the drives out and checked them out one by one on a Win11 computer. All 4 drives spun up and each had 3 partitions...a 4 gb, a 512 mb, and a 1858.51 gb partition on each and it said each was healthy.
The Toshiba Utility did not detect any of the drives.
After I put the drives back into the NAS I tried to power it up and it powered up and booted but I was not in a location with an ethernet cable so I could not access it so I powered it off, moved it back into it's location, plugged in the ethernet cable and it will now not power back up. No lights and no thing. Removed the ethernet cable and still won't power up. Removed the drives and still won't power up. Put the drives back in and still won't power back up.
Also I have checked the wall outlets and all have power.
Should I assume the hard drives are all OK and try them in the other NAS?

Have you tried plugging something else into the main power outlet? I'm wondering if you tripped a breaker.
