Readynas Pro heat issues
Hopefully this is the right place to post this. I've had my Readynas Pro for about 7 years. Recently the power supply fan started to make funny noises and temperature was kind of high. Scheduled power...
Something is probably a little wrong with my old unit. It is not the fans, nor the PSU, nor the disks, nor the CPU. Perhaps something on the motherboard. But at this point I feel is wasted money and time to investigate further.
The unit was actually replacement (and used) that I got, after some advice from after hours support managed to brick my brand new NAS some years ago. The unit stopped doing automated power ups and years later the PSU fan gave up (which is why I replaced the PSU).
I got a brand new unit for $350, perhaps because the unit was being pushed out from the store (Microcenter). These are the much more reasonable numbers I'm getting:

The unit runs much more quiet.
