Migrating disk set from a failed Raidar 4.2.27 on RNDU6320 to new RN42600
My old ReadyNas Pro 6 has died after I had it turn off for a year and I have tried to migrate the disks to a new ReadyNas 426. I have followed the migration guide
https://kb.netgear.com/29957/ReadyNAS-Migrating-disks-from-RAIDiator-4-2-to-ReadyNAS-OS-6-x86
and I'm getting a similar problem to this post
Is there anything I can try?
One of your disks (disk 1) is bad. Your data volume has now been mounted and you should have access to your data over SMB.
Moving from a legacy x86 system to one of our new x86 models RN420 series, RN520 series or RN620 series works just as well as to our older OS6 x86 devices. The important thing is to get an x86 device if the legacy device was x86.

In what way did it "die"? Keep in mind that the NAS boots from the drives, not flash, except for a factory default. So, your array could be damaged, either also causing the "dead" unit or because of it.

Pretty sure it was the the motherboard as it never started to boot. All of the disks come up good in the new NAS with RAIDinator starting and all old setting there. As with the other post everything look good but the data volumes are not mounted.

mdgm mounted the disks in debug mode and all the data is still there. Note for anyone in the future make sure the NAS is connected to a gigabit switch on boot in debug mode as it doesn't swap automatically.
