ReadyNAS NV+ v1 startet nicht/wird warm/schaltet ab
Hallo,
ich habe den RND4000 vor gut 1,5 Jahren gebraucht gekauft und betreibe das System mit 4 Platten dieser Art
Seagate Barracuda ST31000528AS 7200 1 TB .
Bis vor ca. 2 Monaten...
I think something is very wrong. It might be the power supply (or perhaps a failed fan). Those can be replaced, but the other parts cannot be.
Have you tried downloading the log zip file when the unit is running?
If you power it up without the disks, do you also observe the warm temperature and the smell? (Label the disks by slot number when you remove them, and make sure you remove/replace them with the NAS off).
Hello,
yes the smell is the same and I activated the system again to download the file. Should I just upload it here?
Regards

It's best not too, as there is privacy leakage.
You can browse it yourself, or you can ask one of the mods ( JohnCM_S or Marc_V ) to analyze. Hopchen is a former Netgear employee, and he also is often willing to analyze logs.

Yes - that would be another NV+ v1 unit. The ReadyNAS 1100 would also work. Be careful not to get an NV+ v2 or an NVX - they are not compatible.
Finally I bought a used NV+1 v1 unit, which seems to work right now. Not so easy to find one...
My question is now how to set up the system with my existing hard drives. Should I put in my disks in the current order with the system shut down? So while booting the system starts the way like the old unit with all my data intact?
Thank you again for your support!

The first step is to install the right firmware in the replacement NAS. Either match the firmware to what was installed on the old one, or install the current firmware (4.1.16). To do that you need to do a factory install with a scratch disk (not in the array). That disk will be formatted, so anything on it will be lost.
Then shut the NAS down, and install the disks from the old NAS (in their original slots). Power up the NAS. All settings are on the disks, so it will look like the original.
