ReadyNAS RND4000v2 to RN422 Compatibility
Hey all,
I've been tasked with recovering files from a RND4000v2 with 2x 3TB HDD in RAID 1.
The RND4000v2 no longer boots and has no backup :(

The process required is described in ReadyNAS: Migrating disks from RAIDiator 4.1 or RAIDiator 5.3 to ReadyNAS OS 6
You do need somewhere to backup your data to e.g. a USB disk or storage on your network. There would be data recovery costs involved.
If the array is healthy, there is a free process you can try.
That is to install r-linux for windows on a PC, and then connect one of the disks to the PC (either SATA or with a USB dock/adapter).
R-linux for Windows should see the files - if it does, you can offload them to external storage, and then restore them to the RN422 system after the set up process.
