    Seriously, there is not enough to go on from that.  Which NAS model?  Which OS version?  If OS6.x, are snapshots enabled?  Was it in a normal share accessed via Samba or another file protocol, or an iSCSI share?  What type machine is VMWare running on, or is running on the NAS itself?  In what manner was it deleted?  Just what was deleted regarding the virtual machine?  The configuration files?  Virtual disk(s)?  Everything?

     

    I guess I can safely assume the actual question is "How can I recover it?"
