All fixed. I uninstalled my network adapter and reinstalled it. Also, changed encryption type on the adapter.

Still no go. I think it is a Windows 11 credentials thing and I may have to do a reinstall of Windows. Oh joy.

Out of the clear blue, I can no longer connect to any of my Unraid shares. I can connect by the IP address though. Recently, I did have to reinstall Plex Server but I don't recall making any changes to Unraid shares. Attached is a diagnostic file I created this morning. Please help! tower-diagnostics-20250924-0758.zip

Another thing that I noticed is that the missing files are still using the same disk space on the array as before. I would say several terabytes of data. Almost as if the files are hidden.

Would there be any way to recover the missing files? What gets me is the fact that all of the folders and sub folders are intact; just the .mp3 and .flac files missing. I do have 2 parity drives with 2 data drives, all 10tb.

I recently noticed that my internal SSD generated a SMART error, overheating maybe? The SSD is used as my POOL device. What if I remove it and restart array?

I have an extensive music library containing almost 1000 albums, recently, I noticed Plex would show music titles but could not play them. When I accessed the share folder using Total Commander, I see that artist and album folders were intact but most contained no files. I don't know what could have caused this. Attached is a diagnostic file. Unfortunately, I did reboot the system, so the file might not show anything. tower-diagnostics-20241115-1653.zip

thanks, that's what i suspected too

One of my 3 10tb data disks just died. I have 2 10tb parity disks. Can I replace my failed disk with a 4tb drive that I have as a spare or do I need to use another 10tb?

Ok, I'll check my configuration. Thanks!

I recently had a parity disk fail and didn't catch it for several weeks. Is there any way to export UnRaid notifications via email or messenger? Would this require an APP, tool or docker? They are enabled in Notification setting.

I used UnBalanced scatter function to move all data from my 4TB disk 4 to other disks in array. How do I now remove disk 4? Do I perform "New Config"? I am not replacing disk 4 with another. Will parity need to be rebuilt? I am also adding a second 10TB parity disk. Do I do that after?

I think that is exactly what it is. I found this on the drive data sheet. "Second, if you put a new SATA HDD with this feature into a legacy chassis or enclosure, the drive may not spin up! The HDD is not defective. Some legacy power supplies provide 3.3V power on P3 (Pin 3), and this forces the HDD to get stuck in a hard reset condition preventing the HDD from spinning up." I'm going to try to sever pin 3 on a cable. Update: Found a couple SATA adapter cables which do not use pin 3, Parity drive now recognized!

It's a helium filled drive do it's hard to detect if it's spinning up. It is currently being formatted in USB box right now, so I know the drive works. When it finishes up. It try the SATA controller again. The drive is only recognized by UnRaid server when in my USB enclosure. No other configuration work. I tried swapping data cables, tried onboard controller, tried formatting first. Tried tweaking my BIOS, It's not even recognized by BIOS. These drives have a "power off feature". I wonder if that has anything to do with it.

It's still not recognized using the onboard SATA controller. I'm going to put it into my USB drive enclosure to see what happens
