Glad you could recover it. I used to have some corruption issues using a portable drive with my Netgear router. No problems for 2-3 years now since I switched to a powered drive. With the R6300v2's USB3 port it's almost as fast as an ethernet drive. BUT the router will sometimes disconnect the drive if I overload it with multiple concurrent file transfers. It's a handy way to share content but I wouldn't trust it with anything critical...
