TeraStation TS-2.0 TGL - nic died

I have a TeraStation TS-2.0 TGL and a few weeks back my nic in this died. It lids up, but does not flash at all, and I can no longer find my box on the network. The other end of the network cable does not lid, so the nic has probably died.

 

So I have two questions:

1: Is it possible to replace the nic, or replace the motherboard so that I can continue to use my beloved Terastation?

 

if not:

2: How can I access my disks from another computer. It had a RAID5-setup, so putting the disk directly into my PC will probably not work.

 

Please help me here.

Re: TeraStation TS-2.0 TGL - nic died

If you do decide to replace the NIC its a Realtek RTL8110S-32, although its soldered to the MOBO 

This is not something the BT's will be able to support to any great extent.

People should NEVER depend on one system to store all there data! ALWAYS backup your data to another device!

Ok, so second option is the most relevant then. How do I get these disks to work in a computer?

You will need a Linux Computer.

Try to set them back up in a RAID and pull the data off.
