I am upgrading my home lab and I'd like to re purpose the Lacie HDD.
If I were to unmount the HDD from the original Lacie Cloudbox case and mount it into a generic 3.5'' powered case with USB 3.0 connection would I still be able to browse the HDD contents?
Do I risk to lose access to my backups? Does fvdw store data in unconventional ways?

TL;DR
If I mount my lacie HDD into a powered 3.5'' case and connect it to my laptop via USB can I read the data in it?

The disk has 8 partitions, your data is stored on partition 8.
The data partition 8 is formatted in etx3 or ext4. So if you have a pc running linux were you connect the disk you can acces it. On a windows pc you will need an ext3/ext4 driver to be installed and most of these only support reading.

How do i acces to partitions? It is not possible for me on ubuntu.

Hi, please do not post same problem in different topics.
The quote you refered to is valid for a disk with fvdw-sl partition table. From what you posted in the other topic it seems your disk is not set up with fvdw-sl partition table.
Please continue in the other topic.
