    Qnap TS453 Semi Working Motherboard , though 12V to two disks only

    Hi

    I have a 453 Mini , two of the four Sata ports are not getting 12V . I am wondering if anyone has knowledge on hardware repair on these devices . I have attached an image of the board , it appears the Sata ports are powered in pairs , the right pair are working , left pair no voltage ( 0.2V)


    I have tried tracing the 12V rail , though have not been successful . I am guessing there is a Transistor or Mosfet that is open

    Any help , perhaps a schematic?


    The board otherwise appears to work fine .. Boots up ,

    I suspect , that this component 4955GM ( MOS?) is the culprit

    . Since on Pin 1, 2 & 4 have 12V Then pins 7 & 8 go to the 12V on the Sata on the 2nd slot ( non working) .. Though I cant seem to find a trace to the 1st slot 12V . Perhaps I will replace this , then see ..


    Also this looks suspicious ( WRA D33) , though not sure what it is, seems to be a much higher resistance compared to the others next to the working SATA ports

      Seems the markings on the components are not clear .. Perhaps the alcohol wash removed them

      Cant seem to find anything definitive on the marking I can see , what are 4955GM & WRA-D33 .. Unless I have recorded them incorrectly ?

        You can try to deduce the circuit ( and pin voltages ) from the functioning pair of ports

          I replaced the 4955M Power Mosfet , though this makes no difference . There is something stopping the mosfet from sending the 12V to the SATA port ..
