I have an old LinkStation Live (LS-CH1.0TL) that has worked fine for years. Then the other day, it stopped turning on. The fan is blowing, but the status lights remain off, and the HDD does not spin up. I'm guessing I'm hosed and need to get a new NAS device. I haven't tried opening it up to remove the HDD yet.

I'd check the power adapter, if it's not providing enough power it might behave like that. Plenty of other possibilities but that's where I would start.
