A NAS box I bought secondhand recently has been working fine up until a couple of days ago. Now it looks like the power supply has failed. [bigsad]

(I don't blame the previous owner, these things happen with electronics - well, to me at least! [biggrin] )

My wife suggests there is something in my make up that destroys things by touching.

Now to open it up and to see if I can fix it.

At least there's nothing valuable stored on the box hard drives.

Maybe stop wearing makeup then :wasntme:

I managed to find a new PS on the 'net for A$59. Most places want a lot more. I'm happy.

I opened up the PS to see if I could repair it but it is so tightly packed, I gave up that idea. :)

No valves to swap out huh? [emoji56][emoji16]

When I first started working on submarine cable comms gear in the mid-Sixties, it was mostly valve equipment made by STC. I still remember the commonest valve, the CV2000. They were soldered in, not plugged it.

CV2000 @ The Valve Museum

Is there a transistor museum too? Could get some interesting visitors.
