Could you first clarify exactly what you have done?
Were you changing things in the OS using ssh without a backup?

You cannot ssh in the nas at all? What happens when you try?
...and Frontview, what happens when you try to access it?

Alternatively you could try using a linux machine to read the drive.
Perhaps give some more detail about your access problems.
