The RAID format etc. is different will all our new NAS units compared with the Sparc units.
We have a procedure to recover data from disks taken from the NV using our current products (100 series, 300 series etc.) as vandermerwe mentioned. It is important that you don't put the disks from the NV in the new NAS until you are prompted to do so by support.
It is quite simple as vandermerwe indicated.
If the array is fine (usually it is) then hopefully recovery would be straightforward. However if there is a problem with the array (e.g. giving the symptom that the volume won't mount) then we would need to charge for data recovery.
Backups are important. No important data should be stored on a single device.
