supply is restored.

If the system was powered off at the time of the power failure, the system remains off when the power

Use the boot menu to restart or troubleshoot your ReadyNAS storage system.Your storage system provides
the following boot modes:

Normal. Initiates a normal boot process, just like booting using the Power button.

Factory default. Initiates a short disk test that takes approximately 5 minutes. After the disk test, a
10-minute time-out period begins. During the 10-minute time-out period, you can choose to power off
the storage system without causing any data loss, and the factory default process is canceled. If you
choose not to power off the storage system, after the 10-minute time-out period, the factory default
process begins.
