So, the NAS has direct ethernet connection to my router. I open my router IP and see that the NAS is connected indeed and sees it. I type in the NAS IP and it can't connect to it directly. Rebooted both devices, still no access but again, my router shows it is connected and on top of that the NAS has a static IP I assigned to it.
CMD prompt. I get this:
Ping statistics for xxxxxxxx
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 3ms, Maximum = 4ms, Average = 3ms
I'm starting to freak out now. There are 2 drives in there, mirror of each other, both replaced withing the past year. It's not possible that both died t the same time?
We had a power blip yesterday and that is all I can think of. But if it fried both drives I am screwed!
I get no error code or lights flashing on the NAS. When unpower/rest/repower up, I hear a little movement of the disks/reading noise so to speak just minimally, not noisy, barely anything. That is my concern. Then it stops and ll I hear is the NAS fan. Disks are not hot. I depowered and will let it sit overnight. My feeling is like both drives literally the drive motor fried, both at the same time. However, there is no blinking lights on the NAS, strange noises, etc.
What is going on?
