As title says, due to a bug in the WD nas, it started creating infinite shares folder. At the moment I can't access my NAS anymore, so I decided to try ubuntu to recover my data. I tried to follow some guides and to check stuff but seems like (especially for my NAS) stuff like this doesn't exist. I don't even wanna try to do stuff on my own since as you can clearly see I'm not a linux user I don't even understand what's going on. PS: My nas had 4 slot, one of them was in JBOD format, and with ubuntu I could easily access the data without problem. Tried to use some mdadm command but It gave me some "strange" errors which I would ever try to "fix" on my own. Tried to give a last chance to my nas yesterday but it's stuck at boot. Please if someone could really help me task to task because I really really don't know what to do anymore.
Have you read the raid wiki? Is there any chance you could run the --detail and --examine commands? (Yes I get you may have problem finding the disks to be able to run the commands on them! :-) https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Linux_Raid You might have to take the disks out of the NAS, or force the whole thing into JBOD mode, but again if it won't boot, that might not be possible ...
Sorry for my poor english It's not my first language.
Better than my foreign languages! If you can't express yourself clearly in English, then post bi-lingual. I'm guessing your first language is Spanish or Italian, which I don't understand, but there are probably people who do. But you need to use as much English as possible to get the best help.
