A quick search shows TS-439 has an Intel N270 Atom processor that "runs" i386 instruction set.
The TS-420 has an ARM based processor which has (in this case) "runs" ARMv5TE instruction set.

The instructions on cyrius.com are specifically for ARM based NAS devices and as such won't work on your NAS.

With some luck the TS-439 is as a BIOS based system that can be installed with i386 Debian. First hint is the VGA port on the back.
