ReadyNAS 104 tray/caddy
Does anyone know where I can get a tray/caddy for a RN104? I saw the links in a similar post some months back but they lead to items that are out of stock with an unknown availability date which isn't helpful. Does anyone have a spare they no longer need?

Hi vestry, for a few bucks you could pick this one, dismantle it, use one caddy and sell back the other parts or keep them as spare. The caddies are the same as in RN104.
Kind regards
Note that older desktop ReadyNAS trays will also work in the OS-6 NAS (though the new trays won't fit the old NAS). So you could get an older tray (either stand-alone as getting an old used NAS). The older trays with the round latches tend to stick, so you'd be better off getting the older ones with the square latches.
Why do you need another tray?

Thanks - yes, but I don't seem to be able to find a tray with a square latch (or, in fact, a round one) at the moment. I need one because the 104 I got only came with 3 trays. I'm guessing when the old NAS units die the owners don't bother to sell off the parts.

Many thanks for the suggestion and that these trays are compatible, but this seems expensive (to me!) for just a single tray. It seems strange that Netgear makes these things but doesn't seem to stock parts.
