NV+ stuck at "Booting Please Wait"
So, I've seen threads just like this here... so I tried to do a USB boot with the 4.1.10 recovery image... nothing. Tried to do an "OS Reinstall"... no luck. Is there anything that can be done at this point? If nothing else, is there any way to pull the data off of the disks?

- Need to boot to "Tech support" mode for netgear support engineer.
You can have a phone to netgear local support(the call center) for help.
Also can PM me the remote host(wan ip address) when you boot the nas to "tech supprot" mode and forward the port 23 to internet. - So, I called tech support. They had me take out all of the disks and try a boot. It didn't get stuck, but failed because there were no disks (surprise!). However, it was blinking the disk lights... all of them, then disk 2, then all of them. Tech support had me put disks 1, 3, and 4 back in and... ta-da! It boots! One new HDD purchase later, I'm good to go.
I just thought I'd relate this in case it is helpful to someone else.
