recover unraid hdd externally


Recommended Posts

okay so i built an unraid box 5 years ago. For personal reasons its been off for 2 years. so im building a new box with the current version. the old box was on ver 5 something. im trying to recover my media off the old hard drives plugged them into an external dock in a windows 10 machine. Disk management sees all three drives but i cant navigate them in explorer. Disk management just gives me a option to format.

 

Am i missing something?

When I had an ubuntu server LVM drive failure, i was able to use the disk internals application to access data..

https://www.diskinternals.com/linux-reader/  though this does not say it supports  the xfs file system -if that is what your unraid box was using..

 

or https://www.paragon-software.com/home/linuxfs-windows/   not free.
