I want to copy data of a disk that was previously used in an unraid array.

I want to do so just by mounting the disk without adding it to the array and copy the data manually

 

I used the following command:

mount -r -t reiserfs /dev/sdd1 /mnt/old_data -o umask=111,dmask=000 -v

 

but the system won't mount the disk

I'm pretty sure the disk itself is ok, so what am I doing wrong here ?

I really could use some help here since I'm a linux noob and have to rely on what's explained in the wiki's.

 

Everything worked as it should with NTFS formatted drives, but it doesn't with the unraid reiserfs drives.

 

Can anyone help me out here ?

Add the drive as cache. If it's correctly formatted you'll be able to copy it's contents.

Ok, thx

 

but can I remove it afterwards without altering the array ?

Yes.
