I have a Synology NAS that I've set up with RAID 1. The device is set up with two drives, both the same size (i.e. 500 GB each), formatted in ext3
, as a RAID 1 volume (i.e. even though the total capacity is 1TB, I effectively only get 500 GB).
In the case of a device failure where I can only access one of the drives, how can I recover my data? The solution I'm looking for is something like: 'Put the working drive in an enclosure, and use <some software>
to recover your data.'
You've affirmed the fundamental concept behind RAID1, which I understand, but I still don't know how to get at the data. I have MacFUSE installed with the
fuse-ext2
pref which lets me mount ext2/3 volumes but MacOSX still doesn't see my RAID1 volume. Do you have any suggestions for pieces of software to recover? – Avery Chan – 2012-04-25T12:41:55.190
