no network after lightning strike
No network link no network activity lights USB backup works So disks and RAID systems work (Raid5 4x3TB now 4,2/8,1T free) So a simple solution could be to move the disks to a new 4Bay Read...

NV + v2 RAID had the latest available software for that model ..
Now I don't know if it meant X-RAID gibbrich ..
If it has X-RAID, it is probably the "writing order" that is special
the writing order can be affected by "parity delay"
Someone who knows if it is 100% normal (RAID5 standard) or a separate secret rule?Your NAS uses software RAID (mdadm). XRAID is layered on top of mdadm - it manages RAID groups for you automatically (which allows for expansion of the array). But underneath it is just mdadm - there is nothing proprietary about the on-disk structures.
FWIW, it sounds like R-studio isn't finding the mdadm superblock. It's possible that the superblock was corrupted when the lightning stuck. Though I'd have expected an error on the LCD panel if that were the case.
As I said earlier, I don't know what parameters are used when the array is created.

can ReclaiMe manage NETGEAR NAS?
Folks have used it for OS-6 ReadyNAS (which uses the BTRFS file system). I don't recall seeing it used for OS-5, but it likely would work.
The free tool I pointed you too will only find the RAID parameters. The paid version is needed to recover files. However, you can alternatively download the paid version, and see if it can recovery anything before you actually purchase it.
You could also contact R-Studio support, they might know the parameters used by your NV+ v2.

then it probably will work with a 6TB USB disk??
(I have about 5TB data on the NAS) was thinking about running with NTFS
Yes, the v2 should support the 6 TB drive, and it does support NTFS formatting.

so, if it does not work to get a full USB backup on the system, and I do not get hold of a control card (which is now broken) or get one used NV + v2 NAS .. then it is only R-studio that applies??
Basically yes. Or you could manually mount the volume on a linux system.
Any v2 you purchase would be fairly old (since it was discontinued about 5-6 years ago). Note that a used NV+ v1 won't work for this.

I feel very stupid .. that I took for granted that my data was safe in this NAS..and that a new system would be backward compatible..at least with a software (in the NAS)
can anyone from NETGEAR answer this:
#Can I buy the controller board / "motherboard" for my RND-4B NV V2 NAS?
# Do you make a service on such with my problem?
# Do you have another solution we missed?
if no
# If I buy a new / modern NETGEAR today then I have to expect to buy a new one, latest within 4-5 years?
..just wonder if I should send the order on a 524X that I have on my list...
now I already own a full license on R-Studio ..But now there are some reasons why I do not "want" to do that, one is intracranial bleeding..
