ReadyNAS Pro 6 (RNDP6000) stuck at READYNAS screen after power failure.
I have a ReadyNAS Pro 6 (RNDP6000) that failed to recover after a power failure. This firmware on the device was upgraded to OS6, currently running 6.10.10 when it died. I have replaced the power supply, CPU and ram without any change. I cannot access the device via raidar, although it appears to connect to my network (green light on switch), no ping either.
Since it was upgraded from OS4, I was not sure which USB recovery tool should be attempted, if any. Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially since this is a legacy product running an unsupported configuration.

Is the LCD functional?
Try powering down, and removing all the disks (labeling them by slot). The power up the NAS diskless, and see if you can ping it.
Tried booting without disks, no luck. Network lights have now gone out, so it doesn't appear to initialize the network card anymore.

Not a good sign.
You could try an OS reinstall, but I don't think it will resolve anything.
If you do try it, you use the OS-4 reinstall process, but substitute your OS-6 firmware.
