Buffalo Forums

Hello all ;)

I have an old Buffalo Drive Station DUO HD-WLSU2R1. It worked for many years without any problems. In the past i had placed/configured the NAS with 2x2TB HDDs (Raid1 - i mean the model could only Raid1....it's so long ago *g*)
Past a view month ago one HDD had a malfunction, but i only had a 1TB HDD to be replaced. On the NAS there were only 300GB with saved Logs a Backup and i thought that the Raid take the capacity of the smallest HDD. But when i plugged the 1TB into...the NAS didn't Powered on. Each HDD for itself in a single case for checking worked probably. I organized a second 2TB HDD from a friend but now - don't know what or when it happend - the good 2TB from the Raid is empty. Now i have the Problem that i don't find the org. CD and no Backup of it with the Software to configure the NAS with a new Raid and i didn't get the NAS to recognized by any Windows. I have tried Win95, Vista, Win7, Win8, Win10 each in x86+x64. I tried different Buffalo Raid Utilities Versions and DriveNavigators i found the Web but nothing worked. I tried to download the v1.01 from 2012.05.07 from the JP and US Site but both says that my 14 digits SN is not correct for the model. I think it's because i live in Germany (Europe) and this old model isn't in the international DB's anymore.

So i hope that anybody could help me to share the org software with me or hep/support me to configure my good old Buffalo to run again.

It would be very very nice

sincerely and take care all of you
Vanessa

Buffalo have completely left the EU market last year so you're s h i t out of luck.

I'll see if I can get the software and send if to you when I'm back home next week.
