A 4" atx extender should be enough (based on other poster's comments). A fairly new thread on this topic is here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/ReadyNAS-Hardware-Compatibility/ReadyNAS-Pro-Replace-CPU-Fan/td-p/940499
Thanks... Is there not a way to procure the correct PSU with the custom length connector and correct number of molex? Otherwise I can go ahead and buy one but any ideas on the length extension needed?

Yes, really useful post that.
Do the molex connectors on the drive board feature a cap so you can easily re-wire? I asked that of the poster too.
The Molex connectors on both I have replaced were easily moved from the original supply to the replacement. Of course, doing so viods the warranty on the supply. But I found it much cleaner to use the right-angle ones from the original supply and cut the cable length down.
OK Thanks... Are any special tools needed to make the connectors up, other than some wire cutters of course.
