diagnostics attached.
I had 2 disks become disabled in my array. I ran an extended smart tests on both disk 1 & 3 and both completed just fine.
I bought two extra HDDs of the same size but i decided to reuse disk 3 and install one of the new HDDs for disk 1. I started with a rebuild of disk 3 by stopping the array, removing disk 3 from array and spinning it back up. Stopped the array again and added back in disk 3 to start a rebuild of the array. After Disk 3 completed. I stopped the array, removed disk 1 (1eg8sh27) and replaced with new HDD (vchwmjgp) Started back up the rebuilt with the new HDD but during this time i noticed Disk 3 was unmountable.
I see the format button, but if im reading this right, this will reformat the disks and start everything over. I don't mind redoing the rebuild but I'm afraid of it reformatting both drives at the same time and then me loosing data in the process. i still have the old Disk 1 on hand, along with a new and precleared 10tb HDD replacement. I would love to know if there is a way to use them to rebuild everything safely or if just formatting and letting unraid rebuild everything is safe enough.
also During the replacement i also noticed some of my disks were out of placed physically in my servers so i arranged them to the ordered that is shown in UnRaid GUI. Which i believe is why disk 7 is showing as not installed. I wanted to know how to fix this.
I have also attached the smart tests for the original disk 1 and disk 3 if it helps.
