to restore said file system level backup, I would... A) install the compatible postgresql build (if the original was 9.3.5, its fine to use 9.3.17) B) stop the postgresql database service C) replace the 'data' directory with a copy of the data directory from the disk of said dead box D) restart the postgresql database service E) verify your databases are intact and complete.
