Hello everyone, I'm on my first attempt to recover files from a RAID 1. (Buffalo LS520D NAS, 2xdrive system).
Do I need to mess with rebuilding the RAID via imaging and such? Or, can I just run a straight recovery scan against a single drive?

I'm open to any advice you can offer. Thank you!

Straight recovery against a single drive, assuming it was actually RAID 1 and not a RAID 0.

You'll likely find a couple of partitions. The first one is the NAS's own operating system, then the next one is the user data area. So make sure you scan far enough.

Excellent! Thank you very much! I've been successful! Great product, thanks for saving me again.
