read a disk from raid 1 through external box
Hi, i have a ReadyNAS Duo v2 with two disk mount like a raid 1. Can i attach one of the disk from this raid 1 through external box with usb to a PC? And how can i read the archives in it? Than...
If your disks are independent volumes (jbod) or mirrored (xraid-2 or raid-1 with your duo) then you could probably read them on a Windows machine using the ext2fsd drivers. http://www.ext2fsd.com/?page_id=16
There are also some commercial data recovery packages for Windows that claim support for RAID/Linux file systems.
The best approach is to do backups to a disk format that is native to windows. Otherwise you are hoping that the NAS volume has not been corrupted by the failure, as well as dealing with the mechanics of accessing the data.
