I have a RN4200 and had a ISCSI drive connected to a 2k8r2 server. Wednesday last week the drive became corrupt (userfiles~0), I have been told I need to recover the data from the corrupt ISCSI Drive that is NTFS Format. Is there any way to recover the files from the userfile~0 files from the RN4200. All help greatly appreciated. Thank you.

This can be done and I have written an article about it.

Basically, copy the iSCSI file to a local system, and then use image tools to mount it as a file system. Then you can run recovery tools on the resulting virtual drive, or undelete tools, or whatnot. :)

I was interested in this recovery procedure myself as I am thinking of using iSCSI but didn't know how it was working, so this was basic research for me, I didn't actually have a problem. It turned out it was pretty easy to solve!

I wish you good luck!
