Data recovery and disk repair questions and discussions related to old-fashioned SATA, SAS, SCSI, IDE, MFM hard drives - any type of storage device that has moving parts

This morning, two amber lights showed on my Black Armor NAS 110.
Two resets and unplugging power and LAN cables did not change anything , except only one amber light shows (the drive light). The other LED is not lit.
When I start Black Armor Discovery, it says it can't find any server.
I tried "repairing" Black Armor Discovery, but that didn't change anything.
The drive still works as a drive: I can manually access the non-password protected directories and copy files to other drives via Windows Explorer. It seems to be a problem with the system directory in which my system backups are stored.
Black Armor Backup still works; I successfully created another System Backup which I stored on the Public (shared) directory ("Z" drive).
Went into Device Manager, where the NAS has a yellow alert triangle. None of options were relevant.
Tried typing the fixed I.P. address into my browser, but it just did a Google search on it rather than actually pinging the NAS.
What do I try next?
