What I meant by is, I started the array and it immediately began the rebuild process. Out of fear I cancelled the process, and the drives were not mountable until I did a file system check. It repaired the issue again then I was able the mount the drives again.
It would appear the corruption is already logged in the parity
There's nothing terribly lost, mostly just time. I don't store important personal data on this array for that reason. If it were to die, all I would of lost was time. My goal is to save myself time if at all possible. I built this server many years ago but when it comes to the details of how everything works, I will admit I am not the most knowledgeable (if that isn't already apparent).
So having said that, it seems if i want to keep the data and the fixed drives, the best move is to reset the array configuration?
