ReadyNAS Pro Pioneer getting power but blue power button not working
I have an old ReadyNAS Pro Pioneer that has been working perfectly. We had a power outage last night and the unit was on UPS power for about 10 minutes. While on UPS power, I powered the ReadyNAS dow...

Well I am happy to report that I was able to get the power supply switched out successfully. I put all the disks back in and everything came up fine and is back to normal with no problems at all. If anyone is reading this and looking for the parts, I found them here:

Thanks very much to Sandshark and StephenB for your assistance.

These models aren't listed at Seasonic.com, so they must not be in production anymore. It'd be useful if someone could research alternatives. Silverstone makes a supply with similar dimensions (SST-ST30SF), not sure if it would serve or not.

I've suggested the SST-ST45SF elsewhere on the forum, but have not seen where someone has used it. The higher rating of 450W vs. 300W bumps the 12V rail up to the Seasonic rating, and there is also a higher rating on the +5VSB, which I know has been the problem for some. Only $10 more than the SST-ST30SF. But neither have the 3 4-pin MOLEX connectors. The NAS might work fine with just 2 (I know it has just for recovery operations), but Netgear put on three for a reason. So a SATA to MOLEX adapter or moving one of the connectors from old to new would be recommended. I've always moved the old connectors and trimmed the leads, anyway; as it's cleaner.
I bought 4 SeaSonics from another dealer on closeout a few years ago and still have two. Plus, my legacy 6-drive units aren't in my current production environment. So, I'm not likely to try one any time soon.
