March 4, 20233 yr Anyone successful with pulling data off of a synology. I have a ds713+ formatted in a raid 1 with 2 x 10 TB drives. One drive died. I pulled the working drive and installed it in my unraid. I'm trying to mount it using unassigned disks (have it and the pro running) but it won't mount? I've read other forums and unassigned disks should be able to read ext4. Any ideas or trouble shooting advice Edited March 9, 20233 yr by Vitalsignser
March 4, 20233 yr Linux sees the disk as a raid member and UD won't be able to mount that disk with that format. Put it back in your Synology and do a remote share mount to the Synology and copy files that way.
March 4, 20233 yr Author I'm wondering if I can break the raid in the synology then try to mount again. The drive is full. 10TB will take awhile via network

March 5, 20233 yr You have a few choices 1. Copy from synology over network. Simplest, reliable. Speeds won't be bad over 1gbps for a spinner as long as your synology doesn't bottleneck. I've done it this way 2. Break raid to basic in synology, then mount via UD. You need to look for corresponding adadm commands 3. Pass the disk via ata-id to a Linux VM and mount it there using mdadm (unraid cannot do that as it uses its own md stack). Then rsync back to unraid share I would keep it simple and go with 1, all you need is wait until copy finishes
