NAS won't turn on
`NAS won;t trun on. When I plug it in and switch it on, the lights stay on for 2 secs and the machine seems like it is trying to turn on. Then it abruptly stops. Unplugging power supply and reconnect...
Hi mvee,
In case you will still have the same behavior after removing the drives, the issue is most probably with the chassis itself. If you are the original purchaser of the device and it is still under the hardware warranty, you may contact support then so they can process an RMA for the chassis

Hi mvee,
Are you getting the same behavior on your NAS if there are no drives inside it?
(Note: Please label the drives with its corresponding bay before you remove them so they will still be in the same order when you reinsert them)
Regards,
I haven't tried removing the drives. I will do so an get back. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks for your responses. I removed the hard drives (4 x Toshiba 2TB Hard drives) and tried tuining on, and the result was the same. The unit tries turning on (fan sound, lights blinking, display lit with welcome sign) and then it turns off in 2 secs.
Not sure if the unit is in warranty. I will check and follow up. Thanks again.
