Can I read DISC coming from old RND 2110?
I have sold the old RND 2110, I kept the harddrive and I have a few files on it that I would like to copy to my PC. There were only 1 drive in it, a 1 TB drive that is OK!
Is it possible to read the files?
I now have a new RND 10211D NAS now with a new (another) 1 drive in it only - like the old NAS it is a 1 TB drive. When I put in the old drive in it as a second drive, it is not recognized as readable, the only option is "destroy" to make it usable.

It's just reported as empty.....
I see now that there ARE recoverable files in the main window, but so far I can not see that the music folder is recoverable....
I also see a very large file "bootmgr" file, approx 383Mb- Was the duo running with 2 disks? If so, you need to use disk 1.
Also, you should be seeing more than one partition. Are you? - OP sad that he only ever had 1 disk in the duo, but I'm not sure he's certain it was a v1.
- We're you using X-RAID or Flex-RAID?

If it's the one he registered it is a v1. It was running 4.1.7 at the time it was registered.- [quote="StephenB"]Was the duo running with 2 disks? If so, you need to use disk 1.
Hold on, there are actual files inside the "empty" folders.......Except MyMusic - Looks like it's all coming back:-) Great!
- Music files as well?

Yes, music files also, thing is I didn't first check inside the folders, the appeared empty but they weren't.
Now I want to use the "old" Hitatch 1Tb as a mirror disk inside the new RND 102, I have "destroyed" both volumes that were listed.
The extra Hitatchi has it's own blue light in front of the NAS, but as far as I understand the extra disc is not operative as a mirror disk yet( which is called X_RAID in Netgear?) :
In the NAS admin page at 10.0.0.xx the "main" disk is blue, has a green light and the disk state is "Online". Below the NAS image Blue means "RAID(JBOD), which I understand is "a bunch of disks".
The second disk, my "old" Hitatchi, does not have the green light, and has the disk state "unknown".
I thought the NAS would automatically mirror my data when I destroyed the old partitions and data on the extra disk I added.
What should I do now to enable RAID function?- BOTH disks has the blue light in front of the 102 NAS unit.
