Readynas 214 bay 3/4 doesn't detect any drive

I have what I consider an obvious hardware fault with my ReadyNAS. It doesn't react when anything is plugged into bay 3. I raised a ticket to support because Netgear are obliged to address this as a warranty issue but the ticket has just been sat in Open for two days. 46554077

Whenever I entered the serial number the support website just informs me that it's out of the complimentary 90 'tech support', because it has a hardware fault.

So I had to phone up and someone logged it for me, but they tried to transfer me to another number (enterprise support?)...which was just an IVR saying the same thing I get told online.

The agent kindly logged the call... But is there some obvious support route that I have missed? I bought this via the ReadyNAS store on amazon.co.uk and their return/warranty button says the same thing about 90 days. I get the device is considered "EOL" but for the purposes of this warranty that's not relevant.

How was I supposed to log this?
