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.
got new power supply and the nas powers up now. no display but leds working. My guess is at some point i plugged in the power plug the wrong way and it has blown the display. that or when i put it back together after taking it apart to check the power connector wasn't broken; possibly a cable or connector to the display was not seated properly. That all being said, the nas is now visible on the network and i am able to open some folders.. but things are still very slow. Running diagnostics with RAIDar and i get:
