Thanks Tranator, I already tried with the recovery link from the synology forum but unfortunately bad luck. I can see the 3 disks of a SHR in the ubuntu disk manager and I can see all partitions but I cannot recreate the RAID to have access to all the files and copy them over. Do you have any suggestions ? Best Regards, Bart

Hey Trantor and other XPEnology users. I was able to install this DS3612xs DSM 4.2 build 3211++ (repack v1.1) on an old Sony VAIO laptop. now I have the following question: I had a Synology DS1511+ with an extra DX510 (S-ata) expansion bay: 10 disks in total. The Synology DS1511+ failed (send to Synology but no repair possible - mainboard broken, I got back my money from the reseller because device was still under warranty). Now I have huge issues recovering the data on my disks. Tried already with Ubuntu and some mdadm commands commands I used sudo apt-get install mdadm sudo mdadm --assemble --scan sudo apt-get install lvm2 sudo vgscan --mknodes I was able to recover data from a pair of 2 disks in SHR but not my RAID volumes that contained 3 disks. Can I use the XPenology software to recover my disks ? for example If I connect for example 3 disks in synology Hybrid raid to the system, will it recognize this as being a normal SHR volume (as it was on my ds1511+) or do I need to find a mainboard with enough S-ata connections to connect the hard disks directly to the mainboard. will the system automatically recognize the disks coming from my synology or do I need to perform some tweaks ? 2nd question: if I install the xpenology software on a laptop or pc with a s-ata connector, will I be able to connect my DX510 (Synology 5 disk expansion module) to the laptop and use it ? thanks in advance for your answer, great work making this software available on all pc's ! keep on the good work. If I would be able to recover all my data I will be the poster of the solution thankfull forever !
