RND2110 v2 will not start up

Last week I stopped being able to access my ReadyNASRND2110v2 NAS on my network and the unit was powered down. I tried starting and the hard disk would spool up and stay spinning and I still had no access to my NAS. The only way I could get it to stop spinning was to unplug it - pressing the start button wouldn't shut it down.

Every time I try to boot the unit up I get the same problem - the NAS keeps spinning the hard disk and does not link to my network. I have tried to reset by holding the reset button in while powering up but it has no effect.

Please help!

Is it a Duo v1 or a v2 ?

Be careful with the label on the NAS, it's misleading.
Does RAIDar see it?

  The label says: "ReadyNAS Duo RND2110 v2 Model RND2110-100NAS 1X1000SG XRAID". I don't use RAIDar as I only have 1 disk installed in it and saw no sense in installing the ap since the browser interface had all the functionality I needed.
  
  When I enter the network address Windows says it is unavailable at this time. Again, the disk is spooling and doesn't settle down into its normal quiet spun-down standbuy mode.

    As the article says, that means you have a v1 (sparc-based unit). The -100NAS is the tell, a v2 would have a -200NAS. The v2 in the label doesn't mean what you think it does.

    RAIDar gives status information, and the NAS sometimes responds to it even when the web interface is down. So please install it, and tell us what it says.
