Retrieving Data from "My Book World Edition II" (WD20000H2NC)

The unit is in mirrored raid. The unit powers up, the LED lights show that it is in standby, it acquires an IP address, but drops most packets with a ping and doesn’t show up on the network when searching for devices or when using the WD discovery tool.
Both the drives in the unit are in working order, when removed and connected to a PC, they can be seen in disk manager with their partitions, but can not be mounted under windows. I’m assuming it is a format that Windows 10 doesn’t like. Is there an easy way for me to get the data from these drives?
a) Is there a software or OS method
b) if i buy a new WD NAS and place these drives in it, will it read them?

Thanks,

GK.

Edit: Found this link: Need help with My Book World Edition II NAS 2TB. Will try that this evening, has anyone had success / problems using this?
