    Hi Stephen_M,

     

    Do you have a backup of your data? If you have a backup, you can reset the NAS to factory default and restore it from backup.

     

    If you do not have a backup, it will be best for you to contact the NETGEAR support team so they can check if the volume can still be re-mounted or if data recovery is needed (https://kb.netgear.com/69/ReadyNAS-Data-Recovery-Diagnostics-Scope-of-Service). You may log in to the myNETGEAR portal, then open a support ticket there.
