Raid 1 Netgear ReadyNAS FAIL
Posted: Mon Oct 21, 2019 8:08 pm
Hi All,
First time poster. I had a Netgear 2 Bay NAS which stopped booting up a couple of weeks ago due to a power interruption. I had the 2X 4TB drives inside on a RAID 1 config. I have no reason to believe they were corrupted.
I tried a few times to get the data off them using Virtual box running linux on both a windows and Mac and connecting to the drives in an external drive dock but I have had no luck and pretty much no idea what I was doing either having never used linux before.
I purchased a new QNAP TS251b and was hoping to just slot the old disks in and see all my data. I have not been able to do that. I googled a bit and found some data recovery software (disk internals) and using the usb external dock I could see the drive but was not able to access anything inside.
Any advice would be very greatly appreciated as the data is pretty much everything that is important to me.
Cheers
