Netgear Readynas NV+ PSU connection
Hi everybody, I have an old Readynas NV+, whose PSU died recently. I bought another one off Ebay (https://www.ebay.ca/itm/401684582369), but the wire connections clip connect to the board in a way t...
The eBay listing doesn't say in the title that it's for a ReadyNAS, you have to read the whole listing, which I didn't. So no rewiring should be necessary. But you also need working cooling for the supply, and a blocked fan won't accomplish that. So I disagree with the seller that this is a "drop-in replacement". I usually swap out the cover for the original and air dam and disable the fan, but I'm not sure that's possible with that particular supply. The other option is to install the supply slightly back. On the first one I did, I used some aluminum duct tape to just tape it inside the tray, and it seemed to work well.
Your picture is now visible, and I think you just need to tuck the excess cable elsewhere. Either that, or push back the "snakeskin" so you can flatten it out better where it is.
Hi,
I meant the system fan, which is supposed to suck air out of the equipment. The fan in that module is blocked by the plastic pin connector. I didn't rewire anything, nor have I used an adapter. The ebay listing said it's a plug and play PSU model.
I tried accessing some topics about the rewire but either they were not active or deleted as they took me to a support page about warranty.
