Hi Guys,
I am in possession of a Seagate Business Storage 4-Bay NAS for some time now and it was working perfectly until the other day when our street's power went out.
This morning when trying to access the NAS device on my computer it was not possible to do so. Upon reboot of the NAS device the Blue LCD screen on the front was blank apart from an underlined cursor flashing (indicating it must be doing something), the Status button was solid amber and the HDD lights inside were intermittently flashing/not lit (there was no pattern).
I have rang Seagate Technical Support and they have determined that the unit has become faulty due to a shortage but it is still under warranty which I can return (woohoo!).
But I need some data/pictures/information from the HDDs which are in Raid 5 (i'm pretty sure), is there a possibility, before I send it back for replacement, that I can take out the HDDs and withdraw any information off myself via some sort of cable?
- The Internal HDDs in question are 4x 2TB Seagate Barracuda
I'm asking as I really need the data and Seagate quoted £2,800 for their Data Recovery Service.
Thank you all in advance!
