Readynas DUO v2 down, accessing partition directly from disk

[diU]

Hi folks,

I have troubles with not functioning device. The devise is down, not turning on at all and beeing sent for replacement. I need to directly access my disk from x-raid2 partition with windows pc. Tried to connect the disk via external usb box and use 2 different linux partition readers, but they do not recognize partition as any popular linux partition, it is shown as "raw" partition. Any ideas? SOS!

Thanks in advance.

Hi diU,
Windows 7 can detect the partition, you may right click Computer in Windows 7, the open Mamage\Disk Management, you may see the disk and it's partitions here, but can not access these partitions in Windows 7, because the partition on Duo v2 is format to ext4 filesystem, windows does not support.
Do you have Linux OS on PC? I tried on Ubuntu 10.10, it can detect Duo v2's partition and access successfully.
