NV+ SODIMM failed after RAIDiator 4.1.13 [SOLVED]
Update 01/21/2014 -- replacing the SODIMM in the NV+ appears to have solved this problem. No idea why the memory failed shortly after the upgrade to 4.1.13, other than coincidence, Murphy's Law . . . ...
Good news!
I replaced the SODIMM with a Crucial Technology CT12864X335 (Amazon item B0002VAQR4, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002VAQR4/) and the ReadyNAS is alive again! The LCD panel lit up, the ReadyNAS booted from the single 1TB drive with firmware 4.1.13; I then rebooted it without error, shutdown, replaced the original drives in the original slots, and it's working.
Not sure what caused the first SODIMM to go bad, maybe dust? (I thoroughly cleaned it, but found big wads of dust on the first SODIMM.)
In any case, I am very grateful to the ReadyNAS community for advice and assistance. Thanks mdgm, vandermerwe and StephenB!!
