ReadyNas NV+ Post New Power Supply Boot Issue

Follow up to original post with more info. When I plug the system in the display is already lit. I have never seen this before.
Unless you bought a supply specifically stated as being for a ReadyNAS, then it does not have the proper voltage pin-out on the connector, though that can be fixed.

Hopefully, you have damaged neither the NAS nor the supply.

Thanks for the reply. I verified the pin outputs in the diagram you provided and mine matched 1 for 1. Below is the link of the Amazon purchased PSU. It does state it was for a ReadyNAS. I used this PSU as it was recommended by another user on the these forums and they had no problems.

If it's not the PSU, then it's likely to be a system board failure. Sandshark might have a troubleshooting suggestion to pin that down. But it might just be time to get a new NAS.
If you do get a new NAS, you won't be able to directly migrate your disks. Do you need to offload data from the RAID array?
