I've already contacted my seller and he replied, that RMA should be possible without any problems. But currently, he is out of stock and waiting for new mainboards to arrive. So my RMA is still waiting.
My net6501 is also running in a rack case. Today, after several days without power, I've tried so start the net6501 again. It also seems, after it was a time without any power, its starting again. But only a few times, than the problems started again. Running a net6501 with only onboard SSD and WiFi works in max 50/50 situation. So not every start/reboot works. Sometimes it's completly dead again. When I try to connect any PCIe-card or attaching a additional HDD, which was working perfectly fine before those problems occurced, its even more worse. It's nearly every try "playing" dead or not booting. That sounds a little bit, like the mainboard has some troubles with the power. At least I know, it's not the PSU, as I tried two different PSUs, which gave the exact same results. I've also measured the current power, as the manual states max 30w. When my net6501 was able to boot without any problems, it showed about 10-15w max. So this is far away from the max of 30w..
