Unable to Mount Partition from NAS RAID Array to Recover Data
Ubuntu newbie question. Similar questions are asked here but that relates to motherboard and here, but that does not address "mounting" issues.
I have one disk of a 2 disk raid1 array that failed in the raid device. The manufacturer and subsequent investigation indicates it is formatted as a linux disk.
fdisk -l displays
Device Start End Sectors Size Type
/dev/sdb1 41 1953 1913 956.5K Microsoft basic data
/dev/sdb2 ...
...
/dev/sdb9 6504448 8503295 1998848 976M Microsoft basic data
/dev/sdb10 8503296 7814035254 7805531959 3.6T Microsoft basic data
I run
sudo mount /dev/sdb10 /media/seagate
and get
mount: /media/seagate: unknown filesystem type 'linux_raid_member'.
Following the advice here I ran
sudo mdadm --assemble --run /dev/md0 /dev/sdb10
producing:
mdadm: /dev/sdb10 is busy - skipping
mdadm --examine produces

Events : 2
Device Role : Active device 0
Array State : AA ('A' == active, '.' == missing, 'R' == replacing)
One final question was posted here but according to @Ian, the question was never answered satisfactorily.
I am at an impasse it seems. Can anyone point me in the right direction for mounting this partition and (hopefully) recovering the data on it?
Thanks in advance.
Well, made some headway. Used these instructions and I can see the LVM both in terminal window and in GUI interface.
But then:
mount /dev/vg8/lv8 /mnt/sd1
Generates:
“Wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mapper/vg8-lv8,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error”
Followed the advice and used
mkfs.ext4 /dev/vg8/lv8
But got message
/dev/vg8/lv8 contains a ext4 file system
last mounted on /shares/public on Tue Sept 16 20:00:52 1975
Proceed anyway?
JerryFrey suggested using a file recovery such as foremost. But don't I have to mount the partition first?

Answers mentioned here https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/64889/how-to-mount-recover-data-on-a-disk-that-was-part-of-a-mdadm-raid-1-on-another-m may help you.
There is one more option to recover data, use Data Recovery software. The software can ease you task and avoid the risk of losing data.
But, try to mount the partition first.
thanks for the pointer. I made some progress. See my additional notes in question. . I was going to try foremost, but it appears that I still need to mount the partition first. You know whether that is correct?
