I have one more question; what about written data ? How can it not fail to write ? Is unraid smart enough to put everything on other

That's bad news; but thanks for your time

Hello, one of my disks just went disabled (DEVICE IS DISABLED, CONTENTS EMULATED). I looked at SMART diag and from my amateur eye I couldn't see anything; but I don't really know what to look for. So I'm asking for some wise people help. Also I'd like to understand better what is happening because my server looks like it's running fine. When UNRAID says content is emulated does that mean it build missing files (from the disabled disk) on the fly ? I don't understand how my VMs are running if I miss 1/3 of my filesystem. Here are some facts or things I tried that could help: The disabled disk is still hot (maybe a bit less than the others; not sure). I tried swapping sata and power cables with another disk, but the situation is the same with the same disk. Probably irrelevant, but my disks are all 99%full (60G over 8TB free on each) I'm attaching a SMART and instance diags that I ran just after a reboot. Thanks a lot for your time. unraid-diagnostics-20230911-1200.zip unraid-smart-20230911-1159(1).zip

Perfect, taht solved it; thank you good sir

I have restored my UNRAID boot flash drive from a 2 month old backup.In those 2 months I have added a drive. Upon reboot, my array is stoppped as planned nd the new drive is unassigned as normal. But is there a way not tell unraid it already have all the correct infos in parity and the new drive and not to format it. If not possible will I loose data or will it erase it and then rebuild it from parity ? I still have the old flash files (up to date) maybe I can merge some files to tell UNRAID the current status ?
