    One option is to contact Netgear support (my.netgear.com) and ask about data recovery.  It will be expensive.

     

    You could try some RAID recovery tools (most are not free either, but generally there is a trialware mode where you can see what they can find).

        RAID recovery software would run on a PC - some require a linux boot, some will work on Windows.  You'd need to connect your disks to the PC, it cannot be done over the network.  ReclaiMe is one package (though I haven't needed RAID recovery, so I am not in a position to make a recommendation).

         

        Netgear has their own methods, so you'll need to wait for their response.
