Hello ScuseMe1,
Can you still access the files? If you still can, back up the data. You may have to depend on the RAIDar now since display screen doesn't seem to work as it should.
Garbled display is a HW problem that you may need to replace the chassis already.

Thanks for responding JennC.
Everything else with the NV+ seems fine. The display does show parts of what it normally shows (IP address, etc.) but there are other extraneous characters that I don't recognize. These characters change to different ones throughout the days. FrontView shows everything ok. I also ran a diagnostic of the drives and that was fine too. The display turns off in a minute or 2 after booting and since it's only 2 lines, it only shows the space remaining and the IP address.
Honestly, it only bugs me because it's there. My NV+ is 7 years old and has run well, other than the fan and power supply I had to replace. But it means something....
