Swapping disks from ReadyNAS to ReadyNAS NV+
Hi, The power supply of my cherished ReadyNAS NV (RNV1-S2-0000) gave up. I bought a secondhand ReadyNAS NV+ (RND4000). Two options: 1- preferred: swap the 4 disks from ReadyNAS NV/RNV1-S2-0000 ...
Super useful! Thanks. I've hitting a problem...
Scratch drive in the NV+, powers on, get a firmware error message and doesn't seem to be wanting to build a volume.
RAIDar isn't seeing the NV+ either.
Help?
Thanks!

Does RAIDar see it when you power it up w/o the scratch disk?

If the drive is formatted, you need to use the boot menu to do the factory default. See pages 23-24 here: https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/RND2110/Duov1_NV+v1_HW_en_06Dec11.pdf
Alternatively unformat the disk in Windows, or zero it with vendor tools (lifeguard or seatools).
