The Product I have is a Western Digital My Book

The device has stopped working but there is nothing wrong with either of the two mirrored drives. I would like to take out the two mirrored hard drives, and recover the data if at all possible. How would I go about this on ubuntu 11.10? Both of the drives are recognized but I can not see the data anywhere. The relevant software I have on the system are: Disk Utility and a terminal application called mdadm. I am trying to be cautious and not accidentally wipe the data. Any help will be much appreciated.

Can you edit and post the contents of cat /proc/mdstat after booting with the drive plugged into the ubuntu box? – Paul Dec 23 '11 at 21:45
