So, I was cleaning out the old computer room and found a Medion NAS there that potentially still has interesting files on it.
The Medion doesn't seem to work anymore, so stripping it open revealed a good old 2TB WD Green.

Slotted it into the disk reader, and... nothing.
After some googling (and excluding EXT2, 3 or 4), the filesystem must have been XFS.

Installing the paragon software, it immediately found the disk and mounted it.

Now however, it appears to only have one file on it...




Anyone has any clue how to go forward from here? I'm a bit lost tbh, and it's been ages since I've done this sort of stuff.
Oh, and I've never seen Exabytes either hehe

Ok, just for posterity, I re-assembled it, found the medion manual.

Which pointed me to the "medion NAS tool".

Which in turn got me to the drive.
