I was recently copying all of the data off of my ReadyNAS Pro 6, and the device disappeared from my network. I've tried rebooting the device, but it is stuck displaying the "ReadyNAS" logo on the...
Could it be a failed power supply even if the front panel is still displaying the ReadyNAS logo, and the system fans power up and are spinning?

The front panel only needs 5 volts to work, and it is common for it to work even if the 12 volt power from the PSU has failed.
But the fan does require 12 volts, so if it is powered then a PSU issue is much less likely.
It could maybe be memory - Sandshark might have some other ideas.
It could still be the PSU. The NIC is powered by the +5VSB, which also powers the power-on circuit, but the NAS will usually boot without it (requiring you use the rear switch to power on/off). The standard 5V and 12V don't need to be very well regulated for the fans and display to come on, and then there's the 3.3V bus that could be the issue.
If you have a "spare" ATX12V supply, you can hook it up externally to se if that's the problem before you invest in a replacement supply.
