The data partition is the largest one, and it is partition 4 (on Gen 1 devices, maybe the same on Gen 2). It is formatted as EXT4 (a linux-native file system), thus the need for a host linux machine to read it.

While it is generally best to use Linux if recovering the data or to unbrick the drive, it should be noted that one can use Windows 10 to recover the data off a Linux formatted hard drive using software like Linux File Systems for Windows by Paragon Software.

Little bit more discussion on using Windows 10 to view/access the contents of shucked My Cloud Hard drive:
