Though if Netgear already replaced your PSU, they likely wouldn't do it again.
I bought a ReadyNAS Duo V2 from a local store so I could get my backup going again, and today decided to give Netgear a call and see if they'd replace the power supply Much to my surprise, they RMA'd a replacement unit... the whole thing. That is amazing service. I can't think of another company that has ever replaced something this old. I will wait and see what arrives, but they said they were shipping a replacement with a label to return my unit.
I'm sure I'll find a use for it. I am kind of glad I got the Duo though, because its so quiet compared to the NV+. I also like the new software better. I'm just using it to backup another NAS box each night, so speed isn't really a concern. I decided to go with RAID 0 instead of JBOD. This Duo V2 is a nice little box for the money.
