good evening all.
i stumbled apon this forum after installing ubuntu for the first time yesterday, looking for answers to a nas data recovery issue.
i must say i am impressed all beit confused a little by the terminal but im hoping to keep ubuntu on my back up machine as it does seem to have some very handy capabilities, once i figure out how to use them.
was woundering is someone could point me in the right dirrection please.
i have an old netgear stora nas that is equipt with a barracuda 2tb hdd. i can`t moan at the old girl shes been steaming and storing for 10 years, but shes just bit the dust. i have scanned the drive with trial versions of recovery programs with windows and can see all the files but i refuse to pay the extosrtionate cost they want for what i would imagine is a linux based capture program. i have been reading up and watching videos over the last 24hrs and see that ubuntu has the capabilities to mount the drive so i can transfer my data to my new nas. i am coming a little unstuck with os`s and some of the terminal code lines.
im not after the step by step guide i would like to learn how to do this so i can keep ubuntu on one of my machines and am happy to read through other posts ect.
Many thanks Tony
i should have added that my back up machine is only a 32bit x86 system as i only realy use it for network adjustments and the kids school activities so i cannot run the lastest unbuntu`s
