My book live duo to ex2

Hi, am I able to use the drives out of my my book live duo in a ex2? The case is broken on my live duo and was thinking of upgrading to an ex 2, the drives (2x4tb) are only about 50% full.
Thanks in advance

You probably can salvage the drives easy enough.

The data is a different story. The EX2 will likely try to reformat the drives. Not sure they will work without reformatting.

I would take the drives and put them in a USB enclosure to recover data FIRST. Note that the drives are going to be LINUX formatted, so you will need a bit of software to read the data on drives.
