Jenn, I will keep the FedEx tracking numbers handy on the coffee table by the computer. Once it reaches NetGear I'll be putting in a call for verification that no charge(s) have been made on my credit card without my knowledge. Thanks for staying in touch here. Here's some pictures of my handy work yesterday. Gives you an idea of what's inside these cases.
The defective LCD display module above and below.
Take a look at this beautiful surface mount technology. Notice there is a change in components in the next two close-ups.
Note the '4R7' components. There appear to be either coils or resistors. May be a combination and part of the power regulation.
These look like metalic and the previous, a plastic coating or something. I just thought this was interesting.
Hey, do you think Netgear could use another repair tech? I work cheap! ;)
Hi Pstreicher,
Yes, all of the instructions you listed are accurate.
Make sure both units are off
Place the disks in the new chassis in order from left to right.
When you boot the system it will update the firmware to match what ever is on the disks.
This process should not take very long.
The only other item I would say is to make sure critical data is backed up other than that should be good to go.
