Ha! My DNS 323 NAS finally died this year. I think it made it 15 years, which is awesome for a product like that. Good luck.
How much abuse did yours take? Ours is a backup and occasional video server.
Same exact use case for me. Backup and Plex video server. I would say no abuse. I regularly blew out dust and ensured the fan was clean and spinning freely.
It just started randomly turning off. Then one day, it wouldn't turn on.
The data on the HDDs was fine. But, they were formatted in a Linux ext format that Windows can't read natively. You can recover the data, just takes a few steps.
Thanks. Guess I’ll keep my fingers crossed that ours keeps trucking.
