Readynas 104 stuck on normal boot
My Readynas lost power and now when it boots up it's stuck on boot menu. When I press the backup button to cycle through the options it gets stuck at normal, that is "boot menu normal". I've unplug ...

That sounds like a possible power problem. But quite possibly within the NAS where it converts the 12V from the brick to the internal working voltages, not the external brick. Probably no need to panic, but you should pay close attention for at least a while, especially to any voltage warnings in the logs.

If you power up the NAS with no disks installed, are you seeing a "no disks" status on the LCD panel?
Also, can you find the NAS in RAIDar? https://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads#raidar

No. It doesn't give an error no disk installed, it always boot up to the boot menu. When i press the backup button, its stuck on normal. Using RAIDar and readycloud, there's no device found on the network.

No the warranty expired two years ago.

And it boots up this way w/o you pressing the reset on the back of the NAS when you power it up?
Unfortunately it sounds like a hardware failure. Sandshark might have some suggestions, but overall the chassis is not repairable.
