Need to recover assets from G-SPEED XL 16 (FC)

G-SPEED Geniuses Please Advise: Need to recover assets from G-SPEED XL 16. I no longer have the SANBox. Need to get assets to Synology (DSM 7x) 1618+ via MacMini M2 Pro (Ventura 13.3.1 (a)). Original G-SPEED XL set up was RAID 5 (8 ‘A’ drives, 8 ‘B’ all Hitachi Deskstar). I’ve seen some of the posts here suggesting Promise drivers have worked for some, we used SANBox (SANmp client keys) so not sure if that works in my scenario. If it is not possible to make this connection, G-SPEED to Synology via Mac, with out risking data; is it possible to put the ‘bricks’ into enclosure box and extract data directly? Thank you in advance for your wisdom and patience.
