So we’re excited to be launching our My Cloud EX4 and more importantly, launching our Linux platform we’re going to be developing on.
As a part of our strategy, we’ve got support for Linux apps – we’re going to publish some we’ve made but we’ve also got an SDK available. If you’ve got an app and you’d like it to run on the My Cloud EX family of NAS’s (errr Personal Cloud Storage), please send an email to:
We’re working on a new portal to make this process easier – I’ll look forward to updating you all on that as we get a bit closer. If you have any questions, feel free…
Just to be clear. I don’t need to format the drive to Raid. I just need to read the existing information (from MyBook World blue rings) and copy it to another drive.
So, if I understand you correctly. I can insert one drive from MyBook World it in the Ex4 and it will recognize the data written by the MyBook World Blue so I can copy?
If the hardware that was supporting that old disk drive goes bad and we want to recover the data stored on that disk drive, what are the options?
Let’s say EX4 hardware has a failure and we need to get access to the data stored on its disk drives what are the optons?
Thanks,
After a rediculous amount of searching I have found a solution to my “Hardware Enclosure” problem. I found a windows based program which allows viewing and copying of the files on the (Linux) Raid drive.
I think WD should at least provide the link as a possible solution to this catastrophic failure of their Hardware (not the drives) if not provide similar software to recover files and not just tell us we need to spend $$$ from a service to recover the data. That is completely false information on WD’s part. Shame on them.
Bye the way: The article might be a bit confusing but YOU DO NOT need a dual boot system. Just install the software but make sure your drive is connected and running.
