NV+ wont power up

Mark,
There is a lot of discussion of this topic at this link

http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=65944

In the short term, you want to get a friends NV+, and insert disks in.
There is another link on the Forum, from 2009, I think re wiring in a alternative power supply.

Interesting that you have got 6.5 years of usage. You are out of 3 or 5 year warranty.
The power supplies will go in these NV+ v1's eventually, so it is important to have files backed up, and photo
burnt to CD's for example.
Regards, Marto

thanks for the info

fyi, this is the server I use for backup, so no lost files (unless the main server decides to die in the meantime...)

If the NAS serial number is within the specified range, then you are entitled to a new power supply from netgear, even if you are out of warranty.

outside that range, unfortunately, but thanks for the tip!

I found this power supply that looks like it should fit:

250W Enhance ENP-7025B Power Supply 80 PLUS Bronze Certified

anyone know if it will for sure? or any other suggestions?
it is $45 on amazon vs $129 for a NV+ specific one

thanks

I went to order the enhance supply, but someone in the feedback section said that Netgear would sell me a power supply for about $26 shipped.

so I called netgear support and they sold me one.

saved me a ton of aggravation modifying the wiring

ps. this post just goes to show that netgear participation on this forum is DEAD
