Unbrick Sarotech Wizplat NAS-20 ?

Being unhappy with the limited functionality offered by this model of NAS, and knowing it is based on the Gemini chip I tried to upload an alternative firmware. Thats was a mistake – it no longer boots up. Instead, 20 seconds after power-on it sounds a very loud beep and that’s it. It seems bricked. :-(

There’s apparently no telnet server running in the bootloader, nor is there any other network traffic coming out of the box (checked with wireshark).

Anyone who knows how to unbrick this NAS? I found info on the web about unbricking a Giganas, using the build in TTL serial interface, but was unable to find this same interface inside ths Sarootech product.

Is the conector on the second picture the serial port? What would be the pin lay-out?
