I'm in the process of getting my unraid pc setup, currently only has 3x 8TB drives (1 as parity).
For around a week I've been downloading zip files (up to 200gb) from a backup service as one hard drive got fried during the setup...
I've was unzipping one of the archives and suddenly the drives seem to have stopped responding completely.
Can't view the shares, all docker containers are not working, no logs show in Unraid dashboard and no smart data is shown for the drives.
Smart data report just says:
smartctl 7.1 2019-12-30 r5022 [x86_64-linux-5.10.28-Unraid] (local build)

Smartctl open device: /dev/sdh failed: No such device
It appears this is affecting both drives at the same time.
Oddly it appears Unraid OS is unaware of this as both drives show as "normal operation", although I did get an email notification with:
I'm getting used to Unraid and still in trial period, any advice for handling this best? Not sure if best to try reboot and check connections or if that might cause further issues?
