Title: LS-500GL damaged enclosure
Post by: jtrad78 on November 01, 2014, 07:11:29 AM
dear all.

am not sure if this subject had been opening previously, but after searching I couldn't find it out.

I took out the WD drive from my old ls500-GL NAS and connect to a USB enclosure and then to my computer,
after searching for the new drive I got a message of Disk 1 unknown, not initialized.
and since then trying to get access into the data on my drive with no luck,
so if any can help in finding a way to my data back I would be so appreciated.

You cannot access your data on windows in this manner. You will need to boot to windows or get a program that can read xfs. <-- that program that can read xfs... would probably cost money or be a pain to get setup.

Just download a linux live OS and install it on a cd. and run it on your computer and choose live.. not install. then you can access your data.
