glitches ReadyNAS Pro 6 (rndp6000) - keeps rebooting when network plugged in
I have a ReadyNAS pro 6, it has the laatest firmware release, running RAIDiator-x86-4.2.31. A little while ago the unit started to re-boot by itself constantly. It has been running flawlessly for man...
The NAS NIC and the power on/off circuit share a power source called "+5VSB", which is +5 volts Standby and has a very small load limit. If the NIC is drawing too much power, that could glitch the power circuit. If that's the issue, it could be the NAS motherboard, but more likely is the power supply. The +5VSB is a common failure because it remains on even when the NAS is "off", since it has to power the on/off circuit for the button and the NIC for WoL to work.
You can try disabling WoL (Wake on LAN) and see if that helps. It probably won't for long, but it could give another clue.
Do you have a "spare" ATX power supply you can connect externally to your Pro6 to see if that resolves the issue?
Thanks. The Bronze 450 and 550 versions have been on my list, but I've been a bit hesitant to recommend that line since the fan is larger and there will be some restriction of it's flow. Good to know it's working for you.
Given the small cost difference between the 450 and 650, it makes sense to go with the big boy if you go for the gold version. The Bronze still have a 5 year warranty and are half or less the price, so many may want to go with them.
The fan opening is more or less right on. I was happy as there was not much of a restriction.
Notice fan is not even spinning as it is under not enough load to heat it up. That was another reason I went with a bigger supply.
Thanks for the picture. Not having actually purchased one, I pictured there being more fan restriction.
Unfortunately, I mis-spoke about the Bronze version. I thought it was EVGA that was on my list, but it's not. They do not seem to make a Bronze SFX supply.
Yes looking at the fan specs, I was concerned how much may be covered. But once I got it in there, and had a look, I was happy with the results. I don't anticipate problems with it. I think the fan sizes are including the case it is in? not necessarily the blade sizes. I think that is where I won. It is only millimeter coverage I am looking at, even that in a very small area.
