Anyone know of a program for windows that can read Dataplow partitions?

Im looking for something that can read these partitions that my Netgear SC101's use, so in the off chance many years down the road should one of my boxes die I can still get my stuff off of it through windows. I looked it up and looks like there may be something out there, at dataplows site infact, but they require a user/pass to gain access to it, so I was thinking maybe someone out there made their own and would like to share 🙂

Any help in finding this would be great, and Id be willing to install on a pos system Linux if it only comes in that OS form as well. But I am running XP and that would be much better, but again open to both.

TIA!

OH and if it helps it comes up as:

File System: DataPlowSFSZ

THANKS
 
Google didn't turn up anything for me :^(

It would bother me having data retrieval dependent on a proprietary system. If it were me, I'd ditch the netgear for a more traditional server, and count it as a learning experience.
 
Not really any bother for me, I have 4 of them so if one should take a dump I can just throw the drive in one of the others to retrieve the stuff. But what Id like to do is get something, a program, that works in windows that cad read those partitions so I can transfer files faster, and make back ups faster too, that would be a huge help for these NAS boxes are not all that fast, especially when doing large files, but at $35 each and they hold 2 drives, I cant complain too much, and Im also happy it uses its own drivers for because it does the drives show up on my pc as installed drives with a drive letter and not as network drives so sharing games, music, and photos and such with my wife and kids is super easy and simple with them.

just hoping though someone can find me a program that may work so I can pop a drive out and transfer files or save files quicker, that be the icing on the cake for me.
 
Ah, cool that you have backups. Last year I unsuccessfully tried getting data off of old backup tapes. I worked on them for about a week before I gave up. It really brought attention to future compatibility for me.
