Rebuild Option

Contents:

If your NAS device breaks down, giving you no meaningful way to extract information, avoid the temptation of using the “rebuild” option of your Seagate or WD NAS. This function will most likely mess up what’s left of your files, probably giving you a working but storage system that’s completely empty.

For mirrored storage, you can simply pull any disk out of the system, and run a data recovery tool on its surface to recover all the files. Mirrored storage system duplicate the content among all the disks in the system, making each hard drive contain exactly the same information as its counterparts.

Network Attached Storage was such a great idea that companies started offering external storage as a service, often free service for their customers. Apple iCloud, Dell, Google, Amazon and many other companies are happy to provide free storage space to their customers. Information is stored on their own servers that are managed by their employees.

Modern storage devices have gone a long way since the creation of floppy disks. And even though their reliability grows all the time, a NAS failure will cause the corruption of a great many of files.
