ReadyNAS Pro 6 Power Supply
I read somewhere on the forum that if the power supply in the Pro 6 dies the whole chassis has to be replaced. Could I just get some clarification from someone who owns one if this an issue of warr...

Ok, yes I understand I would void my warranty and anything I do would be at my own risk. I would certainly go through the warranty process if I had a problem prior to Feb 2017.
I'm pretty much just hypothesizing a situation where perhaps it's a year or so after the warranty and the PSU goes. And my two options are either having a paperweight on my desk or resurrecting the NAS by using a spare PSU that I have on hand. I'm just curious if it's physically possible to remove the existing PSU, it's a bit hard to tell how it's mounted and I don't want to tear my NAS apart to find out.
That said, it seems like the model number on the PSU is the same as the one for sale on Newegg?
Thanks for the info.
