We moved to San Jose last year. ;) And I wouldn't have any PSUs to swap with in the office, I have to do an RMA just like you when I need a replacement.

I got my replacement PSU last week, but did not get around to installing it till yesterday.
Everything came up fine, did the volume scan on reboot as well; no errors. :thumbsup:
Only regret was that I put it back together in a hurry so I forgot to swap the RAM with a 512MB stick, but it is no big loss since I am using the NAS as a simple file server. I run SlimServer from another PC.

Most of my networking equipment is Netgear (including a few blue-metal-box switches I have had for several years) I have had the power supply adapters go bad a few times, but Netgear support has been pretty good.

I also like Logitech for their support. They have done beyond the normal policy fixing/replacing failed products.
