I predict in 2030 we will have similar bad news from Naim about the Nd555.
I strongly hope not.

As this is a discussion forum which Naim host we know that they don’t use it to give formal information. Have you tried emailing Naim support with this question? If you get a definitive response ask if you can share it with the forum. That would be very helpful…
I will probably ask about nd555
I was under the impression that NDS’s don’t need serving be good to get confirmation as mine is getting on a bit!
The nDAC certainly used to be serviceable, we had ours done in 2022.
They replaced some capacitors according to the service sheet.
I remember that some, who bought the Ndac in the recent years , sent it for service. Some said the sound didn’t changed, other found an improvement.
It was never clear if the Ndac needs or doesn’t need a service.
The same now concerns the Nds, and very probably the Nd555.
If only Naim could post something official on it. But I doubt they will.
FR, I think best wait for Naim to do their review.
