Power Supply
So, given the fact that the ReadyNAS 516 does not have the option of redundant power supplies, I was wondering if it's possible to purchase a spare PS unit to have around. Since I don't live in the US, if anything should happen to my NAS PS unit I would have to go through a distributor, send the unit, have them order the replacement, wait 30 days for the spare part to arrive, etc.
Any ideas?

I don't see why not; the 516 undoubtedly uses a standard off-the-shelf PC power supply labeled with its manufacturer and model number. - EKroboterApprenticeThanks. I haven't had time to remove the cover and check what kind of PS unit the 516 uses. If you happen to know the model number and post it here I've very much appreciate it.
