NETGEAR ReadyNAS Rack-Mount Storage Systems 
Individual Components
On the 3100, 3200, and 4200, you replace power supplies, fans, and batteries individually.
Replacing a Power Supply
If either of the two power supply modules fails, the other module takes the full load and allows 
the system to continue operation without interruption. The power diagnostic LED illuminates 
until the failed unit is replaced. 
You do not need to shut down the system to replace a power supply unit. The backup power 
supply module keeps the system up and running while you replace the failed hot-swap power 
supply. Replace a failed power supply with the same model. 
To replace a power supply:
1. 
Unplug the AC power cord from the failed power supply module.
2. 
Depress the locking tab on the power supply module and use the handle to pull it straight out 
with the rounded handle.
3. 
Push the new power supply unit into the power bay until you hear a click. 
4. 
Secure the locking tab on the unit. 
5. 
Plug the AC power cord back into the unit.
Accessing the Inside of a 3100, 3200, or 4200
You need to access the inside of the unit to replace a fan or battery.
To access the inside of a 3100, 3200, or 4200:
1. 
Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it locks.
The unit is locked when you hear a click sound. 
2. 
Press the two buttons on the top of the chassis to release the top cover.
