Help with Dead Duo V1 please?
My old faithfull ReadyNAS Duo appears to have died and has taken much of my data with it.. It began making a noise like a disc winding up then beeping over and over again. The start switch light is p...
Thanks for the suggestions mdgm
I tried Tech Support mode and RAIDar already but with no luck.
Just finished running drive test tools on both drives which both pass no problem.
Sadly it seems to be a hardware failure in the Duo for some reason.
It couldn't be the MOBO battery could it??????
Anyone know if I buy a barebones Duo V1 and put in the drives will it boot with the data intact?
Just for general reporting the drives are Samsung F1's with 1AA01113 firmware and have clocked up 50163 hours in the Duo.
I have had some success in recovering data with R-Linux (free software) and as it is only some TV series and not my music or documents that have gone things are not too stressed out.
Replaced the Duo with a WD MyBookLive on the network and a USB 3.0 drive mirror on the PC. Keen to have data sets handled by different appliances for some strange reason.
Always had photos and irreplaceable stuff in two places anyway, phew.
Thanks
