resetting NAS Device
If we reset the NAS with the reset button, but HAVE NOT run the volume setup after connecting to RAIDar, would the data still be intact? We reset a non-responsive NAS device, but weren't aware that it...
We performed the reset by holding the reset button thru the power up process. This apparently cleared the partition, as the RAIDar app was then forcing us to use the Setup option to create a new Raid configuration. However, once we identifed that the configuration was wiped, we unplugged the NAS and left it powered off. It wasn't powered up for anymore than 10-15 minutes after resetting. I have since pulled the hard drive and slaved to another pc, but its not showing up as a separate drive. I'm afraid I'll need to quick format it so that the volume is recognized, but then I'm hoping to use a data recovery tool to find and retrieve the lost data.
