After reboot. disk10 seems to not have any data on it even though it shows nearly full. other drives I'm able to navigate to the data

Seems I lost my shares when disk10 said it was unable to write to it

my power sata cables are the daisy chained type (5 to a molex with short loops from drive to drive). All my hardware is about a 2 months old. I built this in early July https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B99WWDZN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1

well i take it back, shares disappeared again

Stopped array, restarted and it seems ok. What do you think my best course of action is? Move data from "problem" drives to array, then pre-clear them? Or is there a beter test before I assume they shouldn't be in the array anymore? Thx media-server-diagnostics-20240906-1601.zip

media-server-diagnostics-20240906-1547.zip disk10 had its power sata partially out after boot. I can stop array and restrat (or reboot) if needed

I think there was a problem with those drives, but can;t be certain. SATA cables seem fine I can post another diagnostic. Can you help me get the missing user shares back? Or recreate them (at least appdata). I can navigate to them through windows network, but they are not in unRAID>shares

I removed the (2) drives that were giving me fits and will move the data back over to the array on the empty space I have. My issue remains that my appdata share has disappeared

I've made sure the connections are sound, rebooted and now disk1 is missing. I'm so confused as to what is going on. I have moved any cables around (since much earlier). It seems it just keeps bouncing between a couple drives as to why things won;t work. Is there a way I can troubleshoot? Move the working disks around to see if that proves it isn;t cables/connections, etc?

You think this is same situation (power/or sata connection)? Why do you think is it "switching"? Would this cause my appdata share to disappear? Sorry for all the questions. Just trying to understand. Everything was running smooth for a good while Also, disk6 is showing healthy in the array, but also shows up in my unassigned disks (but shows "array")

Updated diagnostics. A bunch of my media/data in the array share is missing also media-server-diagnostics-20240906-1346.zip

Rebooted and all are online, but a couple shares are missing and got a warning that communication with my UPS was lost. Here are latest diagnostics media-server-diagnostics-20240906-1328.zip Well the system rebooted itself, I am not sure how. Was nowhere near the button. But same issue that all the drives show as mounted to the array. Now my appdata shares have disappeared. My data/media shares from the array are still there. I am really confused.

I removed all the sata connections and rerouted/reconnected them all, rebooted and now disk1 is unmountable, but the array started. Not sure if the drive is/is going bad. I'd like to copy the data off of it if so

Ok, I am regretting not physically labeling my HDDs so I can identify which is which. I added what drive letter each was while they were in my Windows server, but lost them when I did a "New Config". Let me try. Thx!

I stopped, then started the array and the User Shares reappeared

It just happened again while trying to download many of the files I lost. Attached is diagnostics zip. Please let me know what might be happening. I am very new to unRAID. Thx!media-server-diagnostics-20240906-1154.zip I am planning to reboot for the time being so that Plex is available to my wife (even if temporary)

Ok, I will do so when/if it reoccurs. Thanks for your help!

I found that one of my drives sata (data) connection was damaged and removed it and created a new config without it. I guess I lose the data on that drive. But now my user shares keep disappearing until I reboot. Any ideas what might be happening?

Now, all of a sudden, two of the three "missing" disks are no longer missing?! I didn;t touch anything either. Very confused

Here is diagnostics while array is invalid media-server-diagnostics-20240905-1956.zip

After rebooting, the array won't start b/c of invalid configuration. There are (3) drives that show "missing". Not sure what to do. Need to start array to post logs, correct?

Ok, let me boot it back up. Thx!

I have an array of (16) drives and a lot of data. After a couple recent reboots (cpu fan install and then having issues with Dockers launching) ALL of my data appears missing. The Array is started and if I navigate individual drives, the data shows to be there, but when I go to the overall share, it is suddenly empty. I am very new to unRAID and just migrated all my data. I have (2) HDD that are to be parity drives, but have yet to set them up. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I think I got it figured out (I beleive it was because my old drives naming convention included parenthesis). Thank you!
