Hi All,

I have a couple of Buffalo NAS devices with issues that I was hoping people might be able to help me resolve.

1. Says LS-WXL Series on it and has 2 x 4tb drives installed, I think one of these is bad but the data on it isn't required. Get 6 red blinks and cannot see it in NAS Nav
2. Says LS220D on the back and has 2 x 3tb drives installed, again I think one has gone. It was showing in NAS Nav at my parents house and it advised of bad sectors on drive 1. I have it at home now but all it ever does is flash the white power LED constantly no matter how long it is left. Doesn't show in NAS Nav.

I have an LS220D of my own that is showing and working as it should using the same cable.

I get that a couple of the drives are toast but is there anything that can be salvaged? 2 useable drives maybe?

Thanks for any help & support
