Accessing old data
« on: September 03, 2019, 11:56:32 AM »
Have been advised that my Linkstation is unrepairable due to total loss of power.

If I purchased another Linkstation would I be able to just pop my old disks in from the unrepairable linkstation and be able to access my data?
I also had a usb disk and a raid Drivestation connected to my Linkstation making them all accessable over my network.
Have connected these directly to my pc now but not showing up.
Would these reappear if I connected these to the new Linkstation as before?
Obviously I do need a backup but don't want to buy another Linkstation for nothing.
Is there any other way to recover my data?

Any advise greatly appreciated

  • There's no problem so bad you cannot make it worse

If it's the same model that should work but not if it's a different model.
