 Another NAS Question - Bromptonaut
For a long time we had a Buffalo NAS with around 2TB of storage. Mostly used for back ups.

A year or so ago it stopped working. Possibly a Windows security issue.

How can I recover the data from it?

In my ignorance I thought I could just extract the drive (2TB Seagate Barracuda) from the case, put it in a caddy and sort out the content from there.

Clearly it's more complicated. The drive is not recognised in Windows explorer though the results I get suggest it may have several partitions. More reading, which of course I should have done first, refers to NAS specific file structures.

Is there any way around this?
