ReadyNAS Data Recovery - VMware recovery tool
Description This topic contains links to linux VMware images (Debian / Ubuntu) that have been modified to enable you to access your ReadyNAS duo HDDs from any machine with a USB plug and a SATA to US...
I lost files on a ReadyNAS Pro 2 with current firmware, 4.2.26, data journaling was off...
Actually all the files in a share are gone.
Just double-checking that this means files MIGHT be able to be recovered if data journaling was disabled...if I can find the right pixie dust..
Only two disks in this NAS, they are in good condition.
Would any Linux software might be able to read them and recover the missing files??
The Dekkit VM might not work for me as it's for an older NAS...ReadyNAS Pro 2 is 'newish' compared to NV+.
What if I booted my notebook with a Linux Live CD and attached the NAS to the notebook -- could something be done that way?? -- but what, how??
I could reinstall Paragon EXTFS drive reader software for Windows but I'm fairly sure it won't read the disk/files based on past experience.
Are there any other good EXT filesystem readers for Windows?? I'm sure the Pro 2 is ext3.
Meanwhile I've shut down that ReadyNAS Pro 2 for now.
Thank you, Tom
