Longer post for those wondering about my highly unusual setup.
I had a ransomware attack on my network and they took out everything they could... Well it just happens at the moment they decided to do that I was moving a large number of files over night so I had an active connection to my unraid server via a windows system. Long story short they got everything... A bit of good news though, A friend of mine had a backup (albeit a bit old) of my content. so for the last week my server has been at his house moving 68TB of data back onto my server. Before moving it to his house I removed all dockers, all data on the cache, disabled parity, and cache so the transfer would go faster and basicly set the server to base bones. I got it back today and as a thank you gave him my old sata SSD's I was using as the cache drives. Before I even booted the system in my house I added the new nvme drives. When I tried to re-enable the cache, unraid was having none of it. So, I figured, meh there was nothing on the cache drives anyway so just format it, well that didnt work either. Now I am in need of help... Or perhaps I need to reinstall unraid, but I dont know what that will do to the array. That is a last resort in my eyes anyway.
