Total Failure - Recovery needed
« on: December 16, 2020, 01:19:31 AM »
Hi,

I have a LinkStation Quad LS/QL that had 2 hard drive failed at the same time. I have a replacement hard drive ready but it just won't boot.

When I slot in the new hard drive, it will blink normally during boot (green light) and detect hard drive. After that, it will just shut down.

The only way I can make it stay powered on is if there are no hard drives.

Is there any way to perform a recovery of some sort to make the enclosure usable again?

Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

If you realy need the data:
1) buy 4 new disks
2) clone the old disk to the new
3) try to recover the mdadm raid with the clones
