I changed the disk containing the operating system by making a clone in a new disc. It boot without problems but when I arrive to the management interface it asks me to format and if I click "skip" it does not see the partition with my data.

It works on standard mode.

thank in advance for your réponce.

There is no "boot" disk on a DNS-323, the operating system is stored in flash memory.

I was waiting to see if someone else responded, because I was 99.9% certain that was the case.

C'mon man - you know how this sucker works, it'll boot with no hard drives at all - provided you're running firmware 1.03 or later.  The earlier firmware (pre 1.03) would check for a drive whilst booting and if no "drive ready" status was returned, would wait forever.

I know, I just wondered if there was anything installed on the drive that might affect it.

FWIW, I took a drive out of a RAID-1 configured DNS-323 and put it into a DNS-321 (in the opposite slot to allow for the reversed positions in the DNS-321), and the data was all accessible.  Since I was knocking both of them flat and starting over with EXT3, I figured it was a good time for the experiment.  

I guess that answers the question too...
