A little google searching reveals that the Buffalo Terastation tends to use XFS 
as their file systems... 

So the easiest way would be to boot a live Linux CD or USB and just mount the 
XFS partition and copy your data off. 

Unless, of course, the drive was part of a RAID... of which you would then have 
to re-create the raid to see the data. Hopefully it's a software RAID, which 
isn't dependant on the controller. Or if it's a RAID 1, you should be good to 
go as well.

Try downloading your favorite live linux distro (Fedora, Ubuntu, Knoppix, 
etc...) and see what it can see.
