Synology NAS Data Recovery – Lost iSCSI LUNs or Deleted Shares? We Can Help.

Have you lost access to important iSCSI LUNs or accidentally deleted NAS shares or volumes on your Synology DiskStation? Whether caused by a failed RAID rebuild, firmware update, or accidental deletion, Aberdeen Data Recovery is here to help. With over 25 years of experience, we are Scotland’s trusted experts in NAS data recovery for Synology systems.

We understand how critical your NAS environment is—whether you’re storing business applications, virtual machines, CCTV footage, or personal archives. Our recovery engineers use advanced techniques to recover data from damaged or missing volumes across all Synology configurations.

⚠️ Common Synology NAS Failures We Recover

Some of the most frequent Synology-specific failures include:

  • Lost or corrupted iSCSI LUNs – Often due to RAID corruption, firmware bugs, or accidental deletion.
  • Deleted or lost shared folders or volumes – Can result from human error, failed updates, or sudden power loss.
  • Failed RAID rebuilds or degraded RAID arrays – Common after disk failure or incorrect replacement order.
  • DSM (DiskStation Manager) corruption – Firmware crashes can result in inaccessible or lost volumes.
  • Drive errors or SMART warnings – Leading to slow performance or data loss before RAID collapse.
  • Disappearing mapped volumes or LUN targets – Caused by metadata corruption or system partition issues.
  • iSCSI Target not responding – Often a result of backend file damage or LUN pointer loss.

Attempting to reinitialise or manually reconfigure volumes can overwrite recoverable data, so immediate professional intervention is strongly recommended.

🛠️ How We Recover Synology NAS Data (Including iSCSI and Volumes)

Our process is designed to safely recover lost data from Synology devices without causing further damage:

  1. Drive Imaging
    We clone each individual drive sector-by-sector using hardware-level tools, preserving the original data state—especially important for degraded or failed RAID configurations.
  2. RAID Reconstruction
    Using advanced software, we virtually rebuild the RAID or SHR array, even when DSM cannot mount the volume. This includes rebuilding metadata and parity to restore array structure.
  3. iSCSI LUN Extraction
    We locate and extract LUN images directly from the NAS volume. These can then be restored or mounted for access, even when DSM or iSCSI services are non-functional.
  4. Volume and File Recovery
    Deleted shares and volumes are reconstructed using low-level forensic techniques, including BTRFS and EXT4 recovery tools designed for Synology NAS environments.
  5. Data Return
    All recovered files, VMs, databases, or documents are transferred securely to a new external drive or system of your choice.
