I am powering up my self-assembled NAS for the first time and, of course, it is not working. I am panicking because I cannot return any of the components I am using… 🤯

The absolute first time I powered it up, it stayed on but the HDMI did not output anything, so I brutally unplugged the power (I am starting to regret I did this), and connected a USB with a Proxmox image on it.

Now, every time I plug in the power supply, the NAS powers for one second, than shuts off for two seconds, then it tries to boot again… It goes like this on and on and on…

Any tips to troubleshoot this?

Here are the components I am using:
Case: Jonsbo N3
6× SATA 6 cables
PSU: Chieftec CSN-450C 450W SFX 80 Plus Gold
Topton N18 + Intel N150
2× RAM 16GB DDR5
2× HDD Seagate Ironwolf NAS 10TB
UPS: BlueWalker Power Basic VI 1000 STL

@tommi@pan.rent let's try and isolate the issue: unplug everything and connect it directly to the power supply (no UPS in the middle).

Try to power it on and see what's happening (maybe it does not see any bootable devices and keeps rebooting itself).

After that try to connect a monitor and a keyboard and enter the BIOS.
After that, it's time for a USB live stick.

@ed@livellosegreto.it It keeps happening even with no UPS in the middle and all external devices unplugged. I wish I could at least see the BIOS, but I cannot get to it!
