Old Readynas rnd4000 with new psu

Question

I had an old rnd4000 with 4 disks where the power supply unit had broken. So I replaced it with a new one.

Now the rnd4000 first boots with a rapid blinking which after approx 20 seconds will be slower. And after a while leds of bay 1 and 3 are lit to and fro. In the LED Language this combination is not shows. Any suggestions to proceed are welcome.

Did you make the needed pinout change?&nbsp; (Or purchase a PSU that already had that change applied)?

I bought a psu that already had the pinout changed. The unit just says 'Booting' and thr power on button flashes. When I remove the disk, the display shows 'no disks' and 'Booting'

Do you have a spare disk you can use?&nbsp; If so, try doing a fresh factory install with only that disk in place.

I did that, Now the lcd shows..Booting. Waiting for Raidar.According to the manual I found ithe nas should have192.168.168.168 so I defined the ethernet of my computer as 192.168.168.2 conneced a lancable but Raidar doesnot find the nas. This is not my nas so I have asked the owner if he can find a manual...It could be the wrong subnet.&nbsp; I could perhaps use a sniffer to see the adress of the nas.
