Hello all,

 

I recently was tidying up the cable management in my unRAID server, and I accidentally forgot the order my cables were plugged in to my drives. I had been under the impression that unRAID didn't rely on sata ordering, but now I cannot connect to the webgui or get the server to display anything when booting. When connecting to the webgui it says connection timed out.

 

I don't know how to proceed at the moment, and I've been trying cable combinations to no avail. If there is a way to rebuild the array with whatever order without losing data, then that would be preferred, but I can lose the data if need be since it is mostly movies that I can get off the discs again.

 

i have 5 6tb drives and 1 120gb cache ssd if that information is helpful.

 

Thanks

The drive order is irrelevant to Unraid do something else is hoping on.

 

Do you have a locally attached keyboard/monitor so you can see what is going on?  If so what is showing there?   One possibility is that you have disturbed the network cable?
