Readynas Ultra 6

I guess I spoke to soon. After using my NAS for a day I shut it down. The next day it would not boot. Just displays ReadyNAS. It may not have shutdown clean.

 

I'm not sure how I got past it before but at some point I got it to the boot menu. Not now.

 

I've tried everything I've read here.

I removed the drive.

Will not load boot menu.

Will not boot usb recovery.

Swapped Power supply.

 

Any other suggestions?

 

Thanks

    You might also want to check that the memory is seated.

        When you powered up again, was it still stuck on ReadyNAS?
