Deleted files on encrypted disk1


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I'm new here. Coming on in a bit of a panic.

 

I was migrating files from across multiple disks to disk1 for a specific share, so I didn't have to spin up multiple disks to use the share. Anyways, while doing that, I made the school boy error of typing "rm -r /mnt/disk1" (I meant to cd /mnt/disk1 but was tired had a slight brain derp moment).

 

First thing I did when I realised was press esc and close the terminal, but it still deleted about 400GB of data. I have stopped the array and haven't done any read/writes to the array since.

 

I read that people have managed to get data back by plugging their drive into a windows PC and using a recovery software. That said, my array is encrypted, so I'm not quite sure how that would work in this case.

 

If there's anyone here who has any experience with this and can think of something that might work (maybe recovery software would still work) please let me know.

 

Many thanks,

 

Jonathan
