Ready NAS NV+ 4250 v3 drive migration
I wanted to ask the community if anyone has successfully moved clean raid 5 disks from a legacy NV + Sparc version 4.x to the latest NAS 412 ver 6.x? My old NAS died and presently has my data hosta...
Thank you for your reply.
As bad as it sounds, I even work in IT and did not backup my own data. I know that sounds crazy - but it happened.
I setup this back devices some years ago (probably close to eight years). I believe i was using X-Raid (since it was default) but seriously cannot remember. It was a Raid-5 at the time of the incident. Considering the NAS was not under use when it halted the drives should be in good order. The drives power up and test ok.
Sorry, the new model type purchased is the RN214

Do you have some experience with the linux command line interface?
- I don’t. But I have guys that do. I have see some discussion regarding mounting then in Linux and copying the data out.
Going to check with Netgear tech support first then pulling in my team.There is a guide here: http://jim-st.blogspot.com/2012/07/mouning-readynas-drives-on-x86-systems.html
thank you.
will try this method and see how it works.
reclaime was a bust. It does not keep the directory tree integrity and looses the file names.
