[XPEnology DS3612xs DSM 4.2 build 3211++ (repack v1.2)]

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 !
