ReadyNAS NV+ no power
My ReadyNAS NV+ suddenly stopped working, it won't turn on and theres no reponse from pressing the power button. I tried a diffrerent power cable but I think the power supply is dead. Is there any way to diagnose the PSU and where can I find a replacement,

I'll just do that now and I guess buy a new one soon.
It looks right, but it's not a procedure I've done myself (though I did do a replacement of the PSU in my own NV+, it was a warranty replacement). Hopefully Sandshark will chime in.
Note if you are just wanting to offload data, you can get by with a normal ATX supply, and make the pinout mod in a extension cable. The supply won't fit into the NAS, but it will work as a temporary measure

Sounds like it.
You can purchase a replacement - including RND4PSU1-10000S in your search string might help track them down.
FWIW, there is one on US Amazon for about $70. Though there are reviewer comments saying that you have to modify the chassis to get it to fit. There's another one listed there that appears not to have the issue, but costs around $120.
It is possible to use an off-the-shelf supply that costs less - but you will need to modify the pinout if you go this route.
