So, This actually happened a a couple weeks ago I realized the array was offline.
Leading up to the failure here's the changes I made:
1. I added an older 1TB SSD drive as a data drive in position DISK 4 and joined it to the array.
2. Parity Drive is a Seagate 8TB rotating drive, in poisition Parity 2 that is DISABLED due to SMART errors.
3. When I found the error - I shut down the server.
3. When I rebooted and brought the system back online after 2 weeks (didnt have time to work on it) I notice the Disk 4 SSD is listed as WRONG and Parity 2 is DISABLED.
I have purchased a new 8TB parity drive for replacement, the old one is still hooked up SMART says its ok for now.
I can guarantee ZERO data was added to the 1TB SSD but not sure that really matters in this instance.
How might I proceed to troubleshoot this?
