after removing disk from ultra 4 plus i cant read the disk
i had the hard drive in my readynas but i decided to remove it. now im trying to pull the data off it but windows doesnt recognize it properly.
it shows 3 partitions on the disk a first 4GB partition, then a 512 MB partition then the rest of my data.
im guessing the readynas does some formatting to the disk - how can i get the data off of this disk>

- mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredThe disk is formatted as EXT4, so you'll need EXT4 drivers for your Windows machine or to use a Linux machine.
Why did you decide to remove the drive from the ReadyNAS? - dirkdigsAspirantwhere do i get ext4 drivers for windows 7
