The NVX (Business Edition) had a 5 year limited hardware warranty.

We don't sell replacement PSUs so you could go down the 3rd party route.

Or you could just get a new NAS now and follow this guide: ReadyNAS: Migrating disks from RAIDiator 4.2 to ReadyNAS OS 6 (x86)

Note x86 OS6 ReadyNAS include the RN314, RN424, RN524X, RN526X, RN528X, RN626X, RN628X etc.

The RN104 and RN214 are ARM so they won't work for this procedure.

  If you google "RND4PSU1" you can find some compatible PSUs. They are often significantly more expensive than stock ATX supplies.
  
  If you are comfortable with modifying the 20 pin cable pinout, then you can purchase a stock supply and adapt it. Sandshark is active here, and is a good resource - if he doesn't chime in, you can PM him using the messages link in the upper right of the forum page.
  
  This thread might be helpful if you want to mod a stock supply: https://community.netgear.com/t5/ReadyNAS-Hardware-Compatibility/Inexpensive-power-supply-replacement-for-legacy-4-bay-Readynases/td-p/1016241
