How to fix a faulty USB initBoot for your TNAS?(x.86)

[Gremlin]

PS - I am guilty of making a presumption. Sorry! It is possible to turn off the 'Beep on boot' buzzer from with the OS (some/all not sure).

Thanks for the explanation @Gremlin

@TMqiky and @TMzethar

My device doesn't beep, also after doing what this post suggests for such a case:

If not, please take out the battery of the device, connect the positive and negative terminals of the battery holder with iron wire for 10 seconds, then assemble the device.

So according to the conclusion of this post, the device is damaged and I need a new one?

In case of another TerraMaster device: would I be able to use the HDDs directly as they are, i.e. with all the data, or would they have to be initialized and emptied first, so that I would have to fill them with all the data again?

I have two HDDs. Both were installed as single disks, i.e. no RAID.

I'd named the latest config backup file "TNAS-002E8C_config_backup_20191020_JM33_4.1.03_294", so the installed TOS version must have been "TOS_S2.0_Update_JM33_4.1.03_294.bz2", in case it matters.

You can consider the TNAS model with CPU J3355/J3455. If the system configuration on the hard drive is still normal, you can directly start the TNAS and continue using it. If you cannot start it normally, you need to reinstall TOS for it viewtopic.php?f=76&t=423

I just picked up a new usb drive from amazon to replace the corrupt/bad boot drive in my F2-223 NAS but I'm getting the following error, can anyone assist?

I have the new usb boot drive attached to my ubuntu web server to load the image onto it. not sure if that matters or not...

thanks in advance!
