At www.nasrecovery.info you are offered to use Linux as a first thing to recover NAS. In practice, it does not work at all or at least you cannot obtain any meaningful results.
Let's give an example - sometimes happens that you assemble an array by means of md-raid driver in VMware only to see that one member disk has dropped out after restart. Although it is well-known that VMware provides infinitely reliable virtual hardware, so the only option remains is that md-raid is buggy. Thus, there is very little chance to assemble the array with valuable data with the help of Linux. Keep in mind, that it makes sense to try at least several different Linux versions for, as of now, quite a number of Linux distributions are available at the official Linux web site.
By the way, some of you will be lucky, although it is not mentioned on www.nasrecovery.info - some NASes do work on Win Embedded.
