Replacing a Power Supply
The ReadyNAS 3200 has a 700 watt redundant power supply consisting of two power modules.
Each power supply module has an auto-switching capability, which enables it to automatically
sense and operate at a 100V - 240V input voltage.
If either of the two power supply modules fail, the other module will take the full load and allow
the system to continue operation without interruption. The PWR Fail LED will illuminate and
remain on until the failed unit has been replaced. The power supply units have a hot-swap
capability, meaning you can replace the failed unit without powering down the system.
You do not need to shut down the system to replace a power supply unit. The backup power supply
module will keep the system up and running while you replace the failed hot-swap unit. Replace
the failed power supply with the same model.
1. First unplug the AC power cord from the failed power supply module.
2. Depress the locking tab on the power supply module. Use the handle to pull it straight out with
the rounded handle.
3. Install a new power supply. Push the new power supply unit into the power bay until you hear
a click. Secure the locking tab on the unit.
4. Finish by plugging the AC power cord back into the unit.
