The v1 Chassis is end of life, and you won't be able to buy Sparc v1 NAS in the shops.
Depending on when the v1 was bought, warranty is 3 or 5yrs, more often 3yrs.

I have a customer where his power supply is blown. I can't replace as its outside his 3 yrs
warranty. He is willing to buy a supply, and has tried a number of UK resellers, incl
Misco UK, where it is out of stock.
Netgear are placing a last time order to the China/ Far East supplier to stock up the
RMA reserves. I want to make enquiries about how Netgear can trigger resellers to
stock these PSU's. I can't give promises or commits on this, and am meeting inertia.
I've seen prices on eBay go to £170 UK pounds.
So, for those of you with NV+ v1's can you check your warranty cover, retain your
Invoice/ Proof of purchase ( not on NAS !!) and have
your valuable data backed up to a 2nd source.
