DS212+ died, upgrade to DS923+ what problems to expect?

#1
Hi there,

My DS212+ just died today (it was not reachable, blue led was blinking). When I tried to do the good old "have you tried to turn it off and on again" - the fan tries to start for about a mm and stops and the whole thing is not doing anything (without drives inserted)

I wanted to upgrade soon anyway, so I ordered a DS923+ today. 
I saw a video claiming i can just put the hard drives in and it will magically migrate - is it really that simple or are there problems to expect?
 I do not think that the drives have damage, i accessed them yesterday without issues. My guess would be power supply/motherboard.

Or is there any other way to access the file system before I try to upgrade?. I tried connecting them to my PC - Bios found them, but windows did not see them.

thanks for any tipps/tricks/warnings in advance.

Juergen
P.S. "Funny" how it just died so soon after the end of life e-mail from synology... right before my vacation.... perfect timing... not Dodgy
