RN10400 - won't boot, now won't power... anyway to replace?
Have been naively using my RN10400 for years thinking the RAID idea was protecting my data.. bad idea. This morning i was able to see my NAS root folder but not able to open subfolders. I tried rebo...
Replacement power adapters are inexensive, so you could do a risk buy of one.
You can migrate the disks to any OS-6 NAS (though you will likely need to get a used one if you go down this path).
Already ordered power brick replacement. Suspect a couple weeks to try that.
So OS-6 are anything with model numbers like RN200, 300, 400, etc? And Netgear doesn't sell these anymore? Will see if i can find a used one.
And I am looking at ReclaiMe s/w and buying 4 USB enclosures to see if this at least lets me recover all my data.
Anything else i should be doing?
Thanks for the speedy reply. 🙂

Correct.

They haven't come out and said so, but there is little-to-none inventory out there.

No, I think you are pursuing all the options.

Correct.
Or a legacy NAS converted to OS6. Those will be at least as fast as your 104, and many are faster. Of course, they're also a lot older. But that is making them easier to find used as well as less expensive. Note that your caddies for a 104 won't fit in a legacy unit, so don't make the mistake of buying one without caddies thinking you can move yours over.
