My name is Ulf, and I am from Denmark. This is my first post on this great forum, and I hope someone will be able to guide me to a possible solution. 🙂
I have a Ready NAS Pro, currently with 5 1 TB discs installed and I am running Radiator 4.2.22, which I beleive is the latest.
My problem started out with noise comming from the 80 mm fan at the back, so I wanted to replace it. I took a corsair 80 mm fan designed for PC cases and mounted it. Then another problem came because the sys temp. became more that 65 degr. C, which set the alarm and e-mailed me.
I did some research and found a small add-on, where you cold raise the RPM on the fan to provide less heat inside the NAS:
When downloading addons, you need to make sure they are for the right archetecture and Raidiator version. Fortunately, the system prevents you from actually loading most, if not all, incompaible ones. But it can be frustrating when you try.
Radiator 3.x is ancient and only for the original SPARC processor. That's what the addon you downloaded is for, as demonstrated by the 3.01 in the URL. 4.1.x is the current series for these.
Radiator 4.2.x is for Intel archetectures like your Pro, the NVX, the Ultra's, and the newer rack-mount systems for business and high-end home users.
Radiator 5.3.x is for the newer ARM archectectures that replace the SPARC for the lesser expensive home models like the Dual and NV+ V2.
If you don't get the satisfaction you need from Support, search the forum. When replacing the fans, it is critical that you maintain the same flow rate or better or you will get overheating. There have been discussions of suitable replacements for both chassis and CPU fans for the Pro.
I actually did login and check my warrenty, and it runs to 2015, so I will call them tomorrow. Not sure it they will sendt out parts or only a new unit - hope for the first, because I can change myself 🙂
