ReadNAS NV+ v3 will not power
Please help. Two nights ago our ReadyNAS was powered down normally to move to a different location. Nothing out of the oridinary happened. There is no hot or burned smell from the unit, but now it is...

Well I suppose this can be marked as solved before it was ever replied. I contacted a friend/coworker who had an older gen-1 NV+ lying around not being used. I picked it up and swapped its PSU into my unit and I'm back up and running (and prepping for a giant data offload since I don't trust this PSU any more than the one that just failed, particularly since it's nearly 2 years older). At any rate, this takes care of my issue obvioulsy for the time being.

That seems a much more frugal solution. Truth be told, I'd be fine with that however I know myself well enough that it would simply be added to the pile of 'small projects' I already never get around to. :) I'll likely just retire this one if I cannot source a reasonable direct replacement and sell as-is for parts or what not. Thanks for the information though, very much.

Hi eyewanders,
As mdgm mentioned, support can offer you a PSU as a replacement part if you want to still want to give it a try. I suggest that you give them call to know the pricing.
Kind regards,
