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.

My Stuff: HD-H1.0TGL/R5; WHR-HP-G54S flashed with DD-WRT; LS-CH1.0TL V2; WBMR-G125; HD-H250LAN; 4 x HD-HS500U2; 3 x PC-P4LWAG; TS-X2.0TL/R5;
HS-DH1000GL; 2 x WHR-G300N V2 **NEW TS-H2.0TGL/R5; WBMR-HP-GN**

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.
