Here it is. I can't manage to install a 2dn DSM installation as I can't even access installation page. My router doesnt even see it. I even tried to connect via serial with an tty/usb adpater, zero output in terminal. I might just destroyed it ... 😕

Thank you for your answer. I did all that, but how can I restore the VERSION file to the system, as I can't acess the nas threw SSH ? (is it stored physically somewhere else on the board?) I've managed to restore a copy of the USB DOM on a modified Alcor dongle, but still, no boot. Blink of death, fans are spinning, ethernet is blinking, but no ping response from the nas. Sorry for the nooby questions and thank you for your answers !

Hi all ! And thank you for this post, intended to fight obsolescence ;) I have a DS412+. I've managed to transition it to DS713 through ssh, but got stuck at the update to 7.0.1, and I believed it was because I was in 6.2.4.95556 update 7. So I followed another tutorial to downgrade it, wich told me to delete the etc.defaults/VERSION file by rm command in ssh. Once rebooted I could start the process of installing a pat file, but it crashed, and after the next reboot, nothing, blue blink of death. So I then tried everything, mounting the USBDOM to my computer (which works perfectly in usb2), restored it file by file, then the entire .img - I made a backup earlier), nothing. Even tried to connect to the serial pins with a special TTL adapter, nothing, no output from terminal or putty. Tried with new disks, zero disks, reset button, every combo possible... So my questions are : is there a way to restore this VERSION file ? And... Is it time to buy a new one ? Thank you very much !
