How to access a vmfs 5.61 partition without a esxi - i have orphaned Raid member which maybe have my lost data from datastore...

Hi,

we had an raid crash. So i did some rapair on the snapshot chain and after that i got my OS running. But the second virtual disc was (caused by the crash) killed. only the parent vmdk of the snapshot. I still have one member of the old raid1. I can connect it to my windows 10 and it recognizes the partitions. The big one (ther should be the datatstore) i cant read. Sure, because it is vmfs 5.61.

Is there any chance to access it with a free tool and copy out of it my father vm disc ?

Thanks for helping
