Hello @UltraAndyman,

You can't access the data/volumes directly from your laptop.
If you have credentials, try to connect to Storage Management Utility (SMU) gui or cli.
From there export the volume to a host. (I am not sure if exporting to your laptop is possible). If not, you can install the windows server trial version on your laptop as a secondary OS and try exporting to volume to that server.
