Re: Uh oh

I have a Synology 1815+ that we purchased about 10 months ago. Starting in December I started having random reboots but they weren't caught right away because notifications were not setup correctly and the unit boots so quickly. Towards the end of December I noticed the problem as the frequency had increased quite a bit. I did some searching around and it sounds like quite a few DS1815+ units have bad power supplies. I called up Synology and they confirmed that my issue was a bad power supply and swapped it out. The transfer to the replacement DS1815+ couldn't have been easier. My point with this long winded comment is that the forum post that is referenced in this article is most likely faulty power supplies which is concerning but not the same issue.
