New NV+ stuck at Booting....
Hi I have just got a new NV+ (well 2nd hand but new to me!) that came without any disks and have added 3 X 2TB disks to it. I have switched it on, can see it in Raidar and that and the front panel ...

HELP!!!
i think i have the same issue just occur as the OP.
my NV+ running the latest beta approved FM (4.17 i think) just started booting...please wait issue after being already on and working ok. Its now stuck for a >6hrs.
The power button is unresponsive if i hold it down. There is nothing recognized on raidar. all disk were running fine with their status OK previously.
Can i unplug the unit to start troubleshooting? I do not know how to power down?!
I have 4 drives in it (1x500gbWD that came with unit and and 3x1TB HD103SJ) all on the HCL list and has never given me issues >3years.
The other kicker is im a afraid that i may not have any backup of the drive contents (ie stored on any other hard disk or time machine/offline storage) so im very worried about doing a factory default as my understanding is that my data would be wiped out is this correct?
