Hi all, I was given a TS-QVH12TL/R6. It had 4 1TB drives in it. When it was 'retired' it was mentioned that it worked. When I received it, and try to boot up, and drive 2 would make a noticeable grinding noise.. It goes thru its paces trying to boot.. (Please wait, initialize USB, DRAM test, initialize HDDs) It would just stay in 'TeraStation initialing from HDDs. after a 3-4 minutes, LCD would say 'POST ERR: 0401' and red error light is lit and LCD screen would read 'TeraStation Boot from HDD0' and just stay there. Upper left of NAS is a power button that would constantly blink in green. Next to the Error light is the LAN1 light with flashes intermittently. (Yes, I have LAN cable attached to LAN1 port in back)
I downloaded NAS Navigator2 from Buffalo site but nothing shows up. My router is at IP 192.168.1.1. I have no idea what the IP addy is for the NAS.
Can anyone provide assistance to get this NAS to boot up? I DON'T CARE about retaining any info on the existing drives.. just getting this NAS booted back up and starting from scratch.
Does anyone have a USB recovery/initialization for this NAS? Anything to move to reinstalling firmware so I can revive this NAS. Buffalo support is of no help indicating I should try this forum and TFTP. Any assistance would be appreciated!
