ready nas duo dead
Hi all, Ready nas duo v1 (sparc) dead: powers on fan high speed, blinks all leds 3 times, then blinks disc 1 led 5 times, then repeats. I've tried everything but can't get it to do anything for ...
Here's the LED decoder ring...
5 blinks is the "unsupported RAID configuration".
You could try powering down, removing disk 2, and then rebooting. Though I think it is a long shot.
Assuming that fails, the simplest option is test the disks, and if they are ok do a factory reset. Do you have a backup?
EDIT - it appears that failed memory can also create this blink pattern. viewtopic.php?f=64&t=71737&p=404424#p404424
LED blink behavior for 2 disk systems is three quick blinks of all disk LEDs and the backup LED, followed by an 1s delay, followed by a number of slow blinks. The number of slow blinks will be the error code.
Current error codes:
1 - Vendor mismatch
2 - No disks detected
3 - Bad contents on root partition of disks
4 - Flash error
5 - Unsupported RAID configuration
