Trying to recover data
« on: March 15, 2013, 07:11:36 AM »
After several power outages, I am no longer able to access the Volume. I had two-2TB Samsung HD204UI drives in RAID 1. (I read the RAID 1 not a backup message too late)

I have tried to access them from Windows 7 from an external enclosure and directly to the MB with no response. Booted from Ubuntu 12 and it only shows 500MB (maybe from ffp?).

I ran R Studio and it reports 1000s of "specific documents", but it gave me a message about the drive being corrupt (not sure on the specifics as I had to leave quickly this morning).

Any suggestions on trying to recover the data?

Did you try accessing both HDDs independently on third party devices or just the HDD in bay #1?

I can't guarantee that this will work, but you can try removing both HDDs and only insert the HDD originally located in slot #2 into slot #1 and reboot (so the DNS-321 will only have 1 HDD)

I tried that, but still doesn't work. The other weird thing is it takes FOREVER to shut down so I can swap drives. Like 10 minutes.
