Spare hot-plug disk trays?
The spare hot plug trays for the NV+ seem to have been discontinued. What's going on with this? I need to buy some. Thanks Eric

SATA connectors are designed for a limited number of pulls and handling drives bare you risk damaging them without realising it. I would suggest you review your backup strategy and choose a better method.
That may not hold for the rack mount units
For the consumer desktop units where cost is key and disk changes are expected to be infrequent, it would not seem unreasonable that Netgear chose a lower spec'ed backplane connector - and IIRC there is a comment on the forums from Netgear to that effect. But for the Rack mounted units which are primarily business units, then a different design decision may have been applied.
It would be useful/interesting to know if the rack mount and desktop units share the same backplane connector? The different tray design between the 2 would suggest some change in design criteria
