ReadyNAS 314 Power On Options
Good Morning Everyone,
I am a proud owner of a RN314 and really enjoy the convience it provides to me and my family. One question I have is regarding power on options. Every time I connect the power or a power on event from a power outage the NAS powers on without any interaction.
What I would like to configure is after power off, never power back on unless I actually push the power button. Is this configurable within the BIOS (not that I would know how to access the BIOS)?
Any suggestions are most welcome.
Cheers and have a good day,
John

There is no way to change the BIOS settings.
One workaround you might consider is to get a UPS with a USB monitoring port. The NAS normally will always see power then, and therefore it won't automatically power on. It will also do a clean shutdown when power is lost (and the battery runs out).
