    Kaleidescape Strato Replacement AC Adapter & Remote

    Install Extra HD in Strato

    One possibility The HD logic board may carry some custom firmware which is identified during the boot process. Would be interesting to see if simply swapping the board onto an off the shelf HD of the same model would work. Anyone have a dead Strato HD they want to donate to science !!!
