Good morning FreeNAS people. On Friday morning my FreeNAS mini with four 6TB HDDs died.
While in the IT room the FreeNAS mini had a flashing amber light where the 1Gb network attached.
I brought the mini into my office and connected a monitor and no response?
On the face of the mini there is a green light next to power and a flashing green next to Network but the other 2 lights have no lights of any color?
There is a faint blue light on the front of the four drive sleds.
What is the best way to recover this FreeNAS mini? The drive pool was a Z1 and it was about 65% full (I think). I know it was not above 75% full as this is a backup drive in my network.
Can I buy a new FreeNAS mini and transplant the HDDs?
Is there a secret button to bring the motherboard or power supply back online?
By the way I have a brand new FreeNAS miniXL sitting on my office floor (never powered on so really NEW).
Thanks Team,
