My Unraid server motherboard recently died suddenly (older used hardware). I've already started building a new one with new, upgraded hardware (new motherboard, CPU, RAM, and chassis). I'll be putting the old data drives (1 parity + 5 data) into the new server, but not sure which drives were which. Does it matter? I've also got some new data drives I'd like to add as well. Also, my old server used an MSATA cache drive, but the new server will use 2x PCIe NVMe SSDs as the cache drive pool. I've got a 2.5" MSATA adapter that I can use to access the old cache drive in the new server if necessary. I've still got the USB flash boot drive from the old server. I'd like to be able to boot the new server with my old server's data, appdata, confg, etc. in place. What's the best way to handle this situation?

Replacing the drive seems to have fixed the issue. Thanks for the help @JorgeB!

It's an mSATA drive, mounted directly on the mobo, so no cables.

I've been seeing an issue off and on where my cache drive will seemingly randomly disappear which causes docker to crash. So far I haven't been able to determine what is causing the issue. When it does happen, a simple reboot does NOT fix the issue. I have to physically remove the cache drive and re-insert it. The cache drive is a Kingston 1024G SSD KC600 SATA3 MSATA drive of which I only have one as it's used with an Intel DQ77KB mobo. Diagnostics attached. nas-diagnostics-20250104-0347.zip
