ReadyNAS LED patterns
http://www.readynas.com/forum/faq.php#What_does_this_light_pattern_mean%3F_%28LED%29 Check our FAQ, HCL and more
- Sep 11, 2008Until I post the FAQ, here is the info for reference:
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

Hi,
i just bought a readynas duo, and started it without disk inside. The nas crashed (corrupted root) and i reinstalled it using the tftp procedure. At the end of this procedure, the nas couldn't be seen by raidar and i couldn't power it off using the power button (the leds were on and stable). So i unplugged the nas and did a reset at the restart but the leds stayed off like it's said on the faq :
If all LEDs blink briefly(milliseconds) after power on and then no sign of power, the PSU may be bad or there might be short circuit on PCB and hard drives.
(the disk i use in slot 1 works well)
Is there any method to recover it or do i have to send it back ?
Thank you
