RN31600 power failure

I have a readynas 316  with four numbers of 2 TB HDD.  From today morning, it is not powering On. Since its under warranty,  I dialed the customer care, spoke with them,  and they told they will replace the Chassis, and creasted the RMA. Since the HDDs are working fine, is it ok by swapping the the existing HHDs to the new one, or do I have to give for any Data recovery before migrating the HDDs to the new one. Please advice.??? Helppppp...

    Assuming there is a data backup I would put the existing disks into the new nas exactly in that sequence you had them in the faulty box and would not conduct any additional activities beforehand.
