Hi,
So I have been trying lots of ways to try and recover my RAID 5. I have a synology DS414 NAS and it has 4 x 2Tb drives in it. About 2 weeks ago one of the drives crashed. All the stores were closed so I waited until the next day and went and got another drive. During this time a 2nd drive failed to initiate. I was like no problem I have a full backup I will just delete the volume and re-enable it and then load the backup on.
I made a rookie error and never checked the backup which was corrupt and not even viewable.
So I have since been able to get the drive that initially crashed back working. I have plugged the 4 drives into my PC and have tried various software to try and recover the files but it seems that I only ever get a 1/4 picture or grey picture or nothing on pdf or avi files not viewable.
Is there anything I can do or can someone please help as I can't afford the $550 per drive to recover the files professionally or is this my only option.
Any help at all would be amazing.
