Recovering permanently deleted files from Readynas Pro
Hello, How do you recover deleted files from a Readynas Pro? I deleted a share thinking it would do that like under Windows. I know I will lose the directory structure and the files names and e...
I don't know of a good way to do this. You could try installing extundelete using ssh I guess.
Of course if there are disk writes, the ability to repair rapidly disappears.
If you had the network recycle bin enabled, you might be able to get some data back from there.

Hello,
Would you like to help me further?
I am not exactly a Linux friendly person.
What is the command that downloads and installs extundelete, and its dependancies?
wget something right?
What is the syntax for Readynas, because what I found is for other linux flavours.
When I get it running I will use the net to investigate further but I need the first kick.
The ReadyNAS is mostly Debian Linux, so what you are finding on the web should work fine if it's for Debian. Note that most will say you have to start commands with "sudo", but you don't on a ReadyNAS because you are logged in as root. But if you do not know this most basic thing about Linux, are you sure you want to tackle this yourself? Anything you do wrong could eliminate any chance of data recovery.
Hello,
I think I will be fine if only I get that extundelete running.
The problem at the moment is that the apt command calls for files situated on the www.readynas.com website which seems to be unavailable at the moment and I have no idea if this is temporary or not.
Is there an alternate address for those files?
And if so where do I edit the address called by the apt command?
Are you still running OS4.2.x on the Pro? I've never had that issue, but I've been running OS6.x on mine for some time. Since the Debian distro on whihc OS4.2.x is based is so old, you may have to update your repository list.
