Hi! About two weeks ago I had a blackout at my apartment and when I got home and turned everything on again I was met by this message when I tried to connect to my NAS: At first I tried to go...

So how do I fix my NAS now that the data is off-loaded?
You can do a factory default using the front panel, which will set up the NAS from scratch. The process is described on pages 15-16 here: https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/RND2110/Duov1_NV+v1_HW_en_06Dec11.pdf It might take about 30 minutes to come back on-line after the process begins.
After you regain connectivity, set up the NAS again and restore the data from your backup.

Ok. Then you have the original Duo (v1), and not the v2. The firmware is the final release.
Do you have a backup of the files, or do you need to offload them for safety?

No back-up unfortunatly, so I need to offload them if I can't find a way to access the NAS

Then I think we should start with off-loading data.
There is a freeware program you can use, called r-linux for windows. https://www.r-studio.com/free-linux-recovery/
You'll need a way to connect a disk in your NAS to the PC - either through SATA or via a USB adapter/dock. Note that only one of the disks will work - almost always disk 1, but there are some rare situations when it is disk 2.
I haven't needed this software myself, and I am told it isn't that intuitive. But it should be able to find the data volume (C), and let you copy the data off to either your internal HDD or a USB drive.

Well that took alot longer than expected. Had to buy a new CPU-fan...
But now I have off-loaded the data so what do I do now?
I also got alot of .$ea.user.DOSATTRIB-files, what are those and can I get rid of them?
