My NVX died
Hi, I had a small accident the other day. I shut down the NVX to re-arrange a few things in the room and when I attempted to power it up again I saw some sparks coming out and then the unit died. T...
It shouldn't be a problem to cut the cable. For the temperature, I'm not too sure but anything under 80C is what you want, do you have a temperature sensor you can use? It doesn't sound like you have a soldering iron, if you did you could solder a resistor before the fan which would lower the voltage on it - http://www.blackfiveservices.co.uk/fanspeed.shtml
I had the same thing happen to an NVX we had, power supply died. I just plugging in an ATX power supply so I think that may have damaged the board as I didn't see the ReadyNAS PSU Pinout PDF and it wouldn't start (12V and -5V would have been shorting out with the 12V). I removed the -12V and -5V and now it starts but all the lights are on and the LCD shows weirdness as below, has anyone seen this before? (eventually the LCD characters will disappear slowly and re-appear if I unplug and then re-connect the LCD cable)
