Deleted folder accidently on MY BOOK LIVE DUO

WD Legacy Products My Book Live Duo

  • I am using my MY BOOK LIVE DUO with RAID 1 mode.
  • The problem is that I have deleted a folder with a lot of pictures (jpg files).
  • When I open the TRASH FOLDER on my Mac Book Air I can see only the files which I have deleted from my internal hard drive.
  • But I can’t see the folder which I have deleted accidentely on my MY BOOK LIVE DUO
  • Is there any opportunity to open a TRASH FOLDER or something similar for the MY BOOK LIVE DUO?

Hello,

You may try a data recovery software. If you do a  web search for  Data Recovery  it will yield plenty of data recovery software options.

Hello,

It is absolutely clear to me that I can use a data recovery software. But the question was if I can adjust the settings of the MY BOOK LIVE DUO to allow me to have a TRASH FOLDER. This would be the most comfortable way.

With DATA RECOVERY SOFTWARE I need to scan several hours my file. And before I can scan I need to put the harddrive into another housing to allow me to scan the hard drive. Normal DATA RECOVERY SOFTWARE doesn’t support NAS drives.

No, the MBL and MBL Duo do not have this feature available.

You can research the Samba configurations required to implement it yourself, though, if Warranty is not a concern…
