Network Storage Recovery for Buffalo NAS
Network Storage Recovery for Buffalo NAS is a software solution dedicated exclusively to data recovery from NAS units of Buffalo. The program will aptly restore files from devices of both LinkStation and TeraStation series, regardless of the number of disks the model relies on, and operating via LAN, it doesn't require the extraction of drives from the NAS box and their further connection to the computer.
Effortless tackling of data loss issues related to Buffalo NAS
Key features
When the NAS unit is booted, the software obtains access to the storage via a networking protocol and enables the recovery of data from its disks via LAN without any manipulations with the hardware internals. There is no need to worry about the warranty, vacant ports or any additional equipment – the procedure can be performed even when the disassembly is not possible or may lead to undesirable consequences.
Developed specially for NAS devices of the LinkStation and TeraStation series produced by Buffalo, the program takes into account the peculiarities of storage technologies employed by these models. Therefore, it allows avoiding the compatibility issues that may occur when non-specialized software is used and achieving the maximum effectiveness of data recovery.
For Buffalo NAS models that are based on the RAID technology, the application can automatically detect the parameters of the array and puts the storage together, including standard mdadm RAID levels (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6), nested ones (RAID 10) and non-RAID drive architectures (SPAN).
Though the software automatically reads out the configuration of the array from the available metadata, there are still cases when this information gets lost or severely corrupted. Under such circumstances, the user can define RAID manually by specifying its level, stripe size, etc. and build it in a virtual mode for further data recovery operations.
The application includes special techniques that enable the decryption of encrypted Buffalo NAS volumes right in the software. After the correct encryption key is specified, the storage will get unlocked in the interface for the recovery of the missing content.
The straightforward and convenient interface substantially simplifies the work and eliminates the required efforts to just a couple of clicks. The recovered folders and files can be sorted by date, size, type and names while the search function allows looking for particular items. It is also possible to preview images, texts, PDF-documents or videos, save all the found data at once or select the needed folders or files.
