I had a Lacie single disk (500gb) nas but for the last few days I have
not been able to contact it. I have rebooted it several time via turning
it on and off but that made no difference, there is a blue light that
come on and occasionally flickers (which is normal). I have tried to
access via Linux and Windows, windows has Lacie disk manager program but
that claims there are no disks.
I have done an ipscan and can account for all the IP's addresses listed,
none of the Nas, (both window and linux picked it up by device name and
I cant remember the IP address I set it to). My main question is what
file system do those device normally run. I was thinking about removing
the hard disk and putting it in a USB disk reader and hopefully
recovering some or all of my data (making the assumption that it is the
Motherboard as such that had died and not the disk).
I do have a backup but not a current one, in my defence the USB hard
disk I was backing up to died and I have been saving to buy a new nas
(as I am currently using 400gb of the 500gb nas disk) and a new usb hard
disk to back it up to.
Any suggestion or comment appreciated, except those that extract the
urine ;)
