Data lost with NAS?

[Cynyc]

Hi,

my Asustor NAS AS5002T died. Is there any way to get data from its disks (2xWD30ERFX)? When I connect them to PC, Disk Manager reports two small partitions (255 MB and 1 MB) without recognizable file system and two big chunks of unallocated space (2047.75 GB and 746.52 GB).

Thanks

I can't remember if Windows could recognize the "unallocated space" or if it's an unknown partition. You would need to connect those disks to a Linux PC, or at least boot in Live USB, install mdadm, assemble the RAID1 (even if it's a single volume) /dev/md1 with the two disks partitions /dev/sd[a-b]4 array, would work with single disk if it's a mirror but you'll need to force assemble it. Then mount the array to see if your data is still intact. If you're not familiar I would suggest get someone to help you.
