On the front side, bottom right it states "ReadyNas Duo"
Then underneath it states ReadyNas followed by a sticker that says "RND2110" followed by V2
Ok. So that is a sparc platform, which we call a Duo v1 here. The v2 means it is hardware revision 2 (of the Duo v1). It is confusing, Netgear could have done a better job on the branding and platform identification.
12V~5A is the correct spec for the power adapter.
While it could be the adapter, I am thinking it is more likely to be a dead-on-arrival disk. If you have a spare disk available (2 TB or less) you could try that.

Try installing RAIDar, and see what status it provides on the NAS. https://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads
The duos should be compatible with the seagate - I am wondering if the used duos were defective.
