NV+ Died - SAVE Info On Disks
About a year ago, I replace the power supply on my NV+ RND 4000 - Today I notice the Nas and my mapped drives were offline. Looking at the display panel, the light was dim and it showed me the used...

I clipped wire 12 and 18 on an extention cable and spliced them into wire 10 and everything is working perfectly!
I now have a monstrous power supply sitting outside the NAS but that's OK and the cable connector fit though the cutout for the power connector of the previous inbult power supply. It's whisper quiet and and will run much cooler!
Thanks Again
First try removing the disks (labeling them by slot), and power up the NAS. See if it starts up and gives you a no disks status.
Next I would test the disks in a Windows PC using vendor tools - Seatools for Seagate disks; The WD Dashboard for WDC. Run the long (full) SMART test. You can connect the disks either with SATA or a USB adapter/dock. Windows can't mount the disks, but the diags will find them.
After we know the status of the NAS chassis and the disks, we can figure out a next step.
Thanks for getting back to me and sorry for my delay in responding here. I havent been able to log back in until now ..... I always have to fight with this system, it never accepts my email or password....
Anyway, I can now confirm that it's the power suply.... Another one bites the dust, but it's getting increasingly difficult to to find a replacement.
Any Idea where I can find one, or find instructions at to how to jerrt-rig one?
Thanks!
