July 2, 20215 yr Hello, after a electric shutdown, I have got to crash on my HDDs. i m not sure what can I do, If I have to format the two disk and install them again on the array or not ? (I have two parity disks and I don t want to lose anything 😬) thabks for your help !!! tower-diagnostics-20210702-1347.zip
July 2, 20215 yr Community Expert Formatting is never part of a rebuild/data recovery, the disks looks fine, first thing to do is to fix the filesystem on both emulated disks: https://wiki.unraid.net/Check_Disk_Filesystems#Checking_and_fixing_drives_in_the_webGui
July 2, 20215 yr Author Thanks !! i m stuck here now: i don’t really understand what should I do or option to choose ? thanks !!!!!! Edited July 2, 20215 yr by Keint
July 2, 20215 yr Community Expert Run it again without -n or nothing will be done, if it asks for -L use it.

July 2, 20215 yr Author Thanks !! Here we go ! nothing happen, I still have the issue tower-diagnostics-20210702-1550.zip

These two states require different recovery actions. From the previous posts it sounds as if only the ones for the unmountable states have been done and clearing the disables states (which require rebuilds) is still outstanding.

Thanks so I just need to Check will start Read-Check of all array disks ?
July 2, 20215 yr Community Expert No, you need to rebuild them: https://wiki.unraid.net/Manual/Storage_Management#Rebuilding_a_drive_onto_itself You can do both at the same time.
July 3, 20215 yr Author All good ! Everything is now working well ! thanks again to everyone for your help and reactivity !!!
July 5, 20215 yr Author I still have a problem I can t see what there is on the DISK 5 '' NOT LISTING TOO MANY FILES '' What can I do ? I have a lot of missing movies on Plex, unavailable Thanks ! tower-diagnostics-20210705-1545.zip
July 5, 20215 yr Community Expert There are several ATA errors on disk3, check/replace cables. Disks 1 and 5 are still showing filesystem corruption, run xfs_repair without -n.
July 7, 20215 yr Author Thanks again for your help ! I did everything you advise, I also change the cable. Now everything is looking ok but I lost many movies on my library Plex ( around 450 movies lost) I don t understand why ... I thing I lost files from disk 5 it was quiet full, and now is almost empty after the re building How it s possible? tower-diagnostics-20210707-0850.zip
July 7, 20215 yr Community Expert It's showing at 30% used, so it wasn't formatted, could be the result of filesystem corruption, check the lost+found folder, there could be something there.
July 7, 20215 yr Author Thanks ! yes there are many files and movies in the folder lost and found. Before the hard drive crash the disk 5 has 210 GB left, Today 4.20TB, I don t get where is the reste of the files ? what can I do ? Do I need to copy them in the right folder manually ? One by one 😅? Maybe is a stupid question, but if I remove disk 5, I format it, them I can re build it using the two parity hard drive and get back my missing files? Edited July 7, 20215 yr by Keint

Yep. 17 minutes ago, Keint said: Maybe is a stupid question, but if I remove disk 5, I format it, them I can re build it using the two parity hard drive and get back my missing files? No, it would rebuild the same contents as now, parity can't help with filesystem corruption, also you should always have backups of anything important.

Thanks again for your help ! ok so I have to copy past the files, open each folder so it s like impossible because of the number of files ... I even lost the name of the file 😅 so weird ...
July 7, 20215 yr Community Expert Just now, Keint said: I even lost the name of the file 😅 so weird ... That's not unusual for files than end up on lost+found, you need to check one by one and rename.
