Yes I had a PSU failure, which is when I bought the second NAS (I can just
cut over to that if needed, it will be at most 4 hours out of sync). When I
got the replacement PSU (I swapped one under warranty although it was 14
months old) I bought a spare. Just plugged the PSU in and the NAS came up
fine, there was probably some disk checking but no lost data.
