ReadyNAS RND4000 v3 (NV+)
I've had a few NV+'s over the years, been through the failed PSU on the first NV+ I had, got it replaced, had it fail again, replaced it with a mini-ITX PSU and have lots of luck with it over the year...
Both your units are v1s. Best to make sure the unit you migrate your disks to is running at least as new firmware as the one you are migrating from before doing the migration.
Without the LCD you would need to look at the flashing of disk LEDs.
The disk LEDs flash once after about 5 seconds for an OS Re-install and after about 30 for a factory default. Hold it in till the flash after that and a factory default won't take place.
If you somehow "accidentally" selected a factory default (I don't think this is possible if you are careful, but still) if you have RAIDar open you would see things like "Testing Disks" in the Info (far right) column and then during a 10 minute countdown "Click Setup" in the Info (far right) column. If you power off the system before the 10 minute countdown completes and also having not confirmed a RAID mode choice you would abort the factory default.
