I put the drives in a Windows machine and was able to view the data on each of the drives that UnRaid is saying are unmountable with no filesystem. Quote Link to comment

Do you mean they are using ntfs, or did you use a reiser or xfs reader for Windows? Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 That's strange, since Unraid is not finding a valid filesystem, something weird happened there, but in that case best to back them up using Windows and reformat. Quote Link to comment

I have that software installed on my Windows system and it is recognising my XFS format drives from Unraid, but can only show the top level folder on the drive! I have a bug report outstanding with Paragon but they do not seem very hopeful they can resolve what is going wrong as they have offered to give me a refund (which I have not taken as the software is handling ext4 format drives fine for me).

I guess I should also test with BTRFS formatted disks from UnRaid to get a more complete view. I like the Paragon software so will be happy if I can get it working well with UnRaid formatted drives.

Good luck. I wish I could help but I didn't do anything special. After installing the software, the drives were available in Windows Explorer. Quote Link to comment
