Ready NAS Data Recovery
Hi I have a 104 that recently went rogue on me. It would either sit there is 'retry startup' or it would come up, say it cannot connect to discovery server, but I would be able to load into it on...

Thanks for the response mdgm, but no I didn't.
I contacted them originally and they thought the device was faulty and raised an RMA. So I already spent $40 to get a next day delivery as well as now having to pay around 30-40 to send it back because the issue wasn't the chassis as the problem was identical in both chasis.
So not sure about going down that path and then also spending more money to potentially send my kit in if they cannot get in remotely.
I am happy to do it myself and if need be happy to create a linux partition if that is the recommended path, in general I prefer to be able to do this at home, as I said I can already see the 1000's of file through Reclaime, I just need to know if the standard license will work ReclaiMe and/or are there other alternatives, preferably cheaper - free.
