Linkstation Pro Quad LS-QVL/R5 (Red flashing 7 times)
« on: June 21, 2017, 05:21:20 AM »
Hi, I've looked but I can't find the answer to this, there was a very similar topic from 2014 but it didn't get answered.

I have a LS-QVL/R5 with the power LED blinking red 7 times in a row.  Obviously I can't access it.  It was given to me as a throw out and its well out of warranty etc.  Its got 4 drives in it, not in a RAID array but just separate data disks,  I have all the data elsewhere but it would be a pain to copy everything over again.

I've managed to buy another working LS-QVL without drives, my first question is can  I just insert the old disks into the new box and access the data, or will it go through some startup type initialization process and wipe the old disks?

Thanks for any help in advance.
