When I am in maintenance mode the only option is to format the drive, is it not on the main page?

yes, I think the power cable got pulled out of the affected drive

I have a tool-less case and something must not have been fully secure and I had a HDD fall in there, not sure if it was the one affected, but now I cannot start my array because this drive says it is un-mountable. The error check app told me to run the scan, but my only option was to format it.... I restarted my computer before getting the syslog like an idiot... I will attach what I have, though. Thanks. I do have a syslog from a few days ago that I can attach. syslog.txt ST3000DM001-9YN166_W1F1ZNPQ-20161214-1756.txt syslog_old.txt

I actually have 2 USB drives and think both are for some reason blacklisted...

Is there anything I can do right now to fix this, I do not have another USB drive for some reason on hand. I have a new one on order from amazon that I specifically purchased for unraid but it isn't coming until friday. I have also deleted my key and tried to replace the key but get an error. Everything else I have tried has ended up with everything but purchase a new key greyed out. syslog.txt

It is very much recommended that you put application data on the cache drive. Your mistake was in setting those shares to Use cache disk: Yes. They should have been set to Use cache disk: Only. The Yes setting means they are cached for moving to the array. The Only setting means they will only be on cache. Maybe it's because it's late and i've been wracking my brain, but are you saying that when i setup any share the setting should be :only?

i'll give this a whirl

All that was lost was movies, I have about half them still as a physical copy, the others I do not. I could rip them all again I suppose, pain in the ass, yes. I guess I will just have to learn from my own mistakes. Going forward I guess I should create a seperate share for something like plex and not comingle stuff like movie files with dockers/plugins. Moving forward, Is it ok to go ahead and delete all of the data from my shares that I messed up and start over? The only thing i need to keep is my Docs share, and everything is still there. Also, I have a brand new stand alone computer I just built that I was planning on moving things to, is it safe to do that now? I will mourn the loss of my data and moving forward be less careless. I cannot thank you enough for your help and the time you have taken to try and help me out. You mentioned something about stuff on my cache drive? Moving forward should the shares I install plug in data on not use the cache?

yes XFS. FML I feel like such an idiot, especially for somebody who loves computers

Is this an option? http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=5087.msg47070#msg47070

Looks like it was created by my plex plugin. Nothing is in there really.

No, I created that and never used it. The original plex share with the capital "p" housed my movies Edit. Fudge, second guessing myself now. I'll check where my make MKV default folder was. I don't even know at this point.

So if it is deleted, there's no way of recovering it?

I am trying to think of ANYTHING else I did, but I can't. The only things I was really able to do were to run Plex for a little while and scan my folders to add movies to the server. I started to optimize my Plex server but stopped.
