I still have that NAS - sometime I'll find a SBC I can put in the bottom of it 
to replace the factory board.  I was looking at a Pi, but I only get PCIe x1 
and not the x4 I need...  I just can't bring myself to throw out what looks 
like a good candidate to be reincarnated as a new low power NAS.

I'm sure I could have done that - the QNAP OS is just Linux at heart - it was 
just easier to fudge the resistor in and copy across the network :-)

Glad it was helpful.  It's just a temporary fix, but enough to get it running 
and get the data off :-)
