Readynas Ultra 2 wont boot (RNDU2120-100PES, S/N 2EH21501011C9)
Hi.
Swith on. Powerbutton LED status is constant blue. Disk activity LED active some second. After that only powerbutton Led active - constant blue light. Tried boot meny option OS reinstall. Nothing happends (exept fan running). Tried USB recovery, but Leds indicates boot meny. What to do?
Regards, Daniel
Honestly I think the power brick is a long shot. More likely it is something in the chassis (for instance the NIC). If so, it is not repairable.
If you can connect one of the drives to a Windows PC (either USB adapter or SATA), then you should be able to read the data with r-linux for windows ( http://www.r-tt.com/free_linux_recovery/)
If you purchase a replacement X86 ReadyNAS (RN300 or better), you can temporarily mount the volume in the new NAS and extract data. https://kb.netgear.com/29957/ReadyNAS-Migrating-disks-from-RAIDiator-4-2-to-ReadyNAS-OS-6-x86
You could look for a used OS 4.2 ReadyNAS, though the platform is aging (and you could be inheriting someone else's hardware issues).

Maybe see if RAIDar gives you more clues. https://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads#raidar
RAIDar can´t find it.

The next step is to power down the NAS, remove the disks (labeling by slot), and then powering it back up.
RAIDar should now see it, with a "no disks" status. Please let us know if that happens (or if it remains off the network).
