If your PC is running linux and has the BTRFS file system installed, then you could mount the disk and see the data.
However, if you connect it to a Windows PC or a Mac, then you won't be able to read the data. The PC will "see" the disk, but it doesn't support the file system. So you would need to copy the data somewhere else (for example a USB drive), and then reformat the drive in the NAS when you install it on the PC. Then copy the data back.
