ReadyNas RNX6S2000-009 Motherboard Failed to bootup. Is there HW that could be replace for
Hi,
I have an old ReadyNas RNX6S2000-009 and the motherboard failed to bootup. Can anyone help me to locate a replacement Nas box for this motherboard?
Thanks

That's an Infrant RX6, correct? You are highly unlikely to find a replacement motherboard for that relic, but you could move your volume to an NV or NV+ (V1). Of course, since the NAS boots from the drives, I'm not sure how you have determined the problem is with the hardware.
- It can’t boot up but i could hear the noise that HDD generated. I bought the drives to BestBuy GeekSquak and the said the drives are still good but they don’t have skills for working with Linux.
If I get new HW NV+, it will work with my 4 drives without any setup?
Thanks

Though it would be wise to offload the files on a Windows PC (R-Studio will work), and get a newer NAS. Netgear discontinued sales on the NV+ back in 2011.
