Duo v1 do not boot with 2 drives

After working without any problems for years including upgrade from 2x500Mb to 2x1Tb to 2x2Tb discs I got problems. It started with that I lost contact with my Duo v1. After spending some hours troubleshooting during the holidays I have come to the conclution that my Duo can not boot with both discs attached. If I remove the disc in bay 2 it boots as expected. The same thing if I remove the disc in bay 1. But with discs in both bay 1 and 2 it never boots. I have tested with two different pairs of drives with the same result.

Has anyone else experience this and what was the soloution (if there were any...) ?
I have upgraded the firmware and performed factory reset several times.

Thanks.

  • My Problem is fixed. Readynas Duo v1 is now booting with 2 x 2 TB drives while using the new power adapter!
    Thanks to StephenB!

    My next step is now the replacement of the noisy chassis fan.
