My Synology 1513+ is displaying the flashing blue light of death. I have tried everything I see online to reboot it with no luck. My friend had the same thing happen to his 1513+ about the same time, coincidently Synology did a DSM update so I wonder. Anyway, it is an old device and I gotten many years of good service from it. Also, my main backup is the DS1821+ and I was using the DS1513+ for deep backup. The DS1513+ has five 10TB WD100EFAX drives in it which I would like to redeploy and wonder if they would work in the DS1522+? I know that the recommended drive is the newer WD101EFBX but would rather not waste my existing drives. The drives are only 4 years old and were working fine.
