Who are we?
We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.
We are one. We are legion. And we're trying really hard not to forget.

Ahh I have one as well that is flaky I have the resistor fix and changed the other part and new psu. This will sound odd but if you warm up the motherboard side of the case with a hair dryer it should boot. Not hot just warm. It will just continue to work.
I'm going to have to give the hair dryer trick a shot, I'd already migrated to a 1821, so I'm not sure if it'll boot diskless...but getting a busted NAS to boot with a hairdryer, is too hilarious not to attempt ๐
You may be surprised, I just leave my one on 24/7 now as similar to you I moved to the 1821
This might mean a failing capacitor. I had a MB that was similar. If it was a cold start it would not boot properly. When it was already warm it would boot first time no issue.
