All back on line, parity check took 5 1/2 hours, thanks Again....

Sorry Trurl - bit of a noob on the forums - just clocked the name !! doh !

Thank you for your incredibly knowledgeable assistance - really appreciated - i'm sure you'll all be on santa's good list. p.

Ah right - so it's doing a check of the array - and will be back on line at the end of the rebuild? thanks p.

Right - done a new config - but it's now saying "PARITY IS INVALID" when i hover over the drive error - the triangle

Hi Constructor - so far so good. Put all into the array - and started - identified disk xxx018 which was un mountable (Capture 1) So de-selected from the array and put into the parity (Capture2) - and the array wont display as startable. I've left config this way and rebooted, and upon re-start puts disk xxx018 back into slot 5? Thanks again.

Hi all, been scanning but cant find any previous threads - so please will you guide me - or send a link. My USB boot failed, so purchased a new one, all bootable, and licence key re-installed - i can remote onto it fine from my main PC on the network Foolishly I cant find my backup - so how can I find out which is my parity disk, and the order of the remaining 4 (If there is one) of the other disks in the array? All the drives are coming up unassigned. I'm afraid to mis-select incase I wipe the lot I have 5 disks in total? thanks in advance. p.
