RN426E22 NAS Stuck on "Welcome to Netgear Storage" – No Button Response, No Network Access

I’m planning to collect all technical details to ensure I can rebuild the shares from a Linux PC if the NAS fails again in the future. Could you please advise what information I need to note and where to find it?Also, since this product is no longer supported, my company management is ready to procure another rack-mountable NAS. Could you experts please suggest a reliable, rock-solid make and model?
That's pretty much it. You can mark the drives as you remove them. I use a Sharpie and write right on the drive. When booted diskless, it should not require a long press to turn off.
