A Service Action notice has been posted in the Announcement forum to prevent ReadyNAS NV and NV+ systems from premature power supply failures at viewtopic.php?t=10259. If you own a NV or NV+ within t...
I'm with IanSav on this. I attempted to install the new addon for the NV fan speed but it stated it was not applicable for my unit.
I then thought about the 'replacement fan' addon but decided not to install it due to the warranty voiding clause. If I were to install it though I would have set the min fan speed to 2100 same as the new add-on is designed to do.
Since I still have my original PSU I'm doing a few experiments to see which configuration gives the best temps. For example; I ran SS on the NV all night (fanless PSU and a reversed fan) and took a screen cap of the health page noting the ambient temperature. I plan to duplicate this same test with the fan in the normal position, then re-run both tests with the original "fanned" PSU back in place.
If Infrant has already done so please let me know which configuration provided the best cooling results please. In my setup noise is no longer a big issue.
