If it's the NAS chassis, it strill could be the power supply, even though the fan and LEDs are one. There is a voltage called +5BSB (+5 volts standby) that powers the on/off circuit and the network interface.

With an adapter, a standard ATX supply can be used externally to see if it's just a power issue.
If you have a backup of the data, you need to decide if spending money on the old, slow NAS is worthwhile or if there is a new NAS in your future.
