Power LED Blinking, Web Admin not accessible, tried 4 boot menu options
Power LED Blinking, Web Admin not accessible.
After home power outage, my RAS 102 is not accessible. I tried the following boot menu options:
Normal: comes back blinking power LED
OS reinstall: stays as blinking power LED
Factory default: blinking power LED
Test disk: alternate blinking power LED and disk 1 LED (left for 24 hours)
Memory test : stays as blinking power LED
How long does the factory default or memory test take ?
Anyone has other ideas that I can try ? is it possible to book from USB

When you select the factory default (wipes all data, settings, everything) boot menu option it wouldn't take long before the NAS comes up, particularly if you press the backup button during the 10 minute timeout period.
Do you recall which firmware you were running?
Do you have a backup of your data?

I don’t recall which software rev it has, I know I’ve upgraded couple times since I bought it in beginning of 2014. So it may have the latest.
And I don’t have a backup. My UPS failed few weeks ago and I’ve yet to replace, we had power outage during a recent storm, all electronics in the home reset, but it seems the RAS102 never came back online

What do you see in RAIDar when you try to boot the NAS?
