Failed ReadyNAS RN10200 enclosure - Data off Disks

Hi everyone, I'm in need of some help!

 

I have a failed RN10200 enclosure. It sustained some water damaged from an open window and thunderstorm. I've tried a new PSU but it won't power on. How can I get the data off these formated RAID disks? I have a USB 3.0 docking station where I can stamp down the 3.5" disk and it can see the partitions, but I can't extract any of the info. The 3TB RAID volume is right there, but I can't use it!

 

Can someone point me in the right direction so I can have Windows see the partition and copy it over to my new NAS (non-READYNAS)?

  • Try this:

    # apt-get update

    # mdadm --assemble --scan
    # cat /proc/mdstat
    # mount -t btrfs -o ro /dev/md127 /mnt

    One option of course is to get a replacement OS-6 NAS.  You can directly migrate the drives from the failed unit to the replacement.

    You can't do it from Windows, because it doesn't support BTRFS.  You can boot up the PC using a Linux "live" disk, then install BTRFS ( if necessary).  That will let you mount the volume from one of the RN102 hard drives.

      Thanks for some direction Stephen!

       

      I got rufus/ubuntu live USB, and I've booted up fine.

       

      In Disks, I see the Linux RAID disk, and the partition, but there's no option to mount. Do you think I need to install some BTRFS software or package to get it mounted? Sorry for the noob stuff, just concerned about getting the data off and onto my already built NAS.
