HI StephenB, many thanks for your speedy input. And I have good news... after trying to access the boot menu a couple more times, suddently it came up (I wonder if maybe the contacts of the reset switch were oxidized) so I have been able to start in read-only mode and have started the looooong process of copying 40Tb off the NAS.

Thanks again for your support, much appreciated!
