NV+ factory reset
I have made a giant mistake. Here's what happened: I forgot my password to enter the frontview of my NAS, so i tried password reset. Appears i never set the thing, so next option was a factory reset...

If you let the factory reset complete I think the odds are really low. How much money are you prepared to spend? The more stuff you try (unsuccessfully), the more difficult the task becomes for a recovery service. So if you have any thoughts of using a service like that, you should contact them now - at least get a price.

I haven't tried it either. However, if you can't afford a professional service it might worth a shot. You'd need to have at least two of the disks accessed by your PC. Perhaps you can contact them (or post on their forum).

From the specs you will need the pro version (http://www.easeus.com/datarecoverywizardpro/). The standard version doesn't support linux file systems.
