Thanks a lot. This time, I was lucky enough, next time I'll first consult the forum before doing anything else! Still I'm wondering, why the drive was shown defective in the array.

My bad, I didn't connect it properly. Now it showed up. Find the diagnostics attached again. It's properly mounted and I even can See the files. Gonna do a super quick backup right now. unraid-diagnostics-20200831-1448.zip

Yes, Disk4 is the one, I swapped in. I connected the drive, it's not showing up at all in unassigned devices.

Find attached the diagnostics zip I have not now, as mentioned earlier, I had, so I replaced the drive I'm not sure if I actually did format it while trying to rebuild the array with the old drive. I considered it but I'm not sure, if I really did (it was wednesday night at.. 1:30 or so). I have the drive next to me, I only tried to mount it with a xfs tool (without any succsess), but nothing else. Thanks in advance unraid-diagnostics-20200831-1412.zip

Hi everybody, I have a question regarding parity and rebuilding a defective drive. I had assumingly a corrupted drive (or at least a drive failure according to unraid dashboard). So I got myself a new drive and swapped it in but now two days later I see, that at least one, I guess two shares are completely empty. I would like to understand how this could happen, although I have a parity drive? Everything is back green now in Unraid, but, as I said, the entire content of one share is missing. Please don't tell me, to have backups, I have a backup that I'm currently rolling back for the more important share, but I would rather like to understand, how this happened. Is it possible, that parity data was written, while the drive was already partly corrupted? Is there (even if I have the most important things) a way to get anything of the data? To me it's even unclear, what exactly is wrong with that drive, it's a 9 months old WD Red (EFAX). Best regards, maybe someone can help me out (at least to understand the problem). 32Domi
