Scenario
If your QNAP NAS is non-functioning (for example, due to hardware failure), you may need to recover files from the installed hard drives. QNAP recommends using NAS migration when possible to preserve your data and configuration by moving your drives to a compatible new QNAP NAS.
Solution
- Check NAS migration compatibility:
- Visit the QNAP NAS Migration page for compatible models.
- Choose a new QNAP NAS that supports migration from your existing NAS.
- Perform migration:
- Power off the old NAS and carefully remove all hard drives, keeping their order unchanged.
- Install the drives in the same order in the new QNAP NAS.
- Power on the new NAS and log in as an administrator.
- Check system logs. Important: If you see "The firmware versions of the system built-in flash and hardware are not consistent", go to Control Panel > Firmware Update and update the firmware.
- After migration, your files and configuration should be available as before.
Important: Do not initialize or format the drives in Windows, as this will erase your data. If you are uncertain about your RAID configuration or migration compatibility, contact QNAP support for guidance.
Limitations
- Windows cannot read EXT4 or ZFS file systems by default.
- If your NAS used RAID, data may be distributed across multiple drives, making recovery more complex.
- Directly connecting a single drive from a RAID array may not provide access to your data.
- Modifying drives can risk data loss. Avoid writing to the drives.
- NAS migration is only supported between specific models. Check compatibility before proceeding.

场景
如果您的 QNAP NAS 无法正常工作(例如,由于硬件故障),您可能需要从已安装的硬盘中恢复文件。QNAP 建议在可能的情况下使用 NAS 迁移,通过将硬盘移动到兼容的新 QNAP NAS 来保留您的数据和配置。
解决方案
- 检查 NAS 迁移兼容性:
- 执行迁移:
- 关闭旧 NAS 并小心移除所有硬盘,保持它们的顺序不变。
- 按相同顺序将硬盘安装到新的 QNAP NAS 中。
- 启动新 NAS 并以管理员身份登录。
- 检查系统日志。重要提示: 如果您看到“系统内置闪存和硬件的固件版本不一致”,请前往 控制台 > 固件更新 并更新固件。
- 迁移后,您的文件和配置应与之前一样可用。
重要提示: 不要在 Windows 中初始化或格式化硬盘,因为这会擦除您的数据。如果您不确定 RAID 配置或迁移兼容性,请联系 QNAP 支持以获取指导。
限制
- Windows 默认无法读取 EXT4 或 ZFS 文件系统。
- 如果您的 NAS 使用了 RAID,数据可能分布在多个硬盘上,使恢复更加复杂。
- 直接连接来自 RAID 阵列的单个硬盘可能无法访问您的数据。
- 修改硬盘可能会导致数据丢失。避免对硬盘进行写入操作。
- NAS 迁移仅支持特定型号之间的迁移。请在继续之前检查兼容性。
