RN104 shares lost after OS reinstall, Data still intact, how can i rescue it?

RN-104 Admin Password was lost, performed OS Reinstall from boot menu as instructed by forum users.Admin password is now recovered but all shares have dissapeared from Readynas, The disks still show the same percentage usage so im guessing the data is still intact on disk but all shares are lost, when i try recreating s share with the same name and path as one i previously had i get an error message saying it could not be created, howver if i try and create a share with a name i never previously used it works fine.

 

Also readycloud service is degraded and will not connect.

 

How can i go about rescuing my Data from the drives ?

 

4x2TB drives formatted in a JBOD array.

 

Readynas Firmware Version: 6.8.1

 

Many thanks in advance !
