ReadyNAS 204 Ethernet Ports nor working
Good day, I need some help, I have a ReadyNAS 204 which has been working perfectly since I bought it about a year ago, but after struggling to connect to it I found that none of the lights on eit...
Thank you,
I am the original purchaser and will return it, but I urgently need to access the data and can't wait for the replacement or repair to be done.
Are you comfortable with Linux shell commands?
Good day,
Yes I am.
Then if you connect all the drives to a PC, and boot that PC up with a linux Live boot disk, you can access the data.
You'll need to install mdadm and btrfs onto the linux system (if they are not preinstalled).
And especially since access to your data is so important, you clearly need to consider a backup plan once the NAS is replaced under warranty.
