Then I know what to expect or do next so I don't "guess" myself into another potential concern. It should just be a case of stopping the array and restarting in Normal mode. At that point everything should be OK, but if not ask for advice.
June 23, 20224 yr Author Rebuild finally finished. Selected "Done". Stopped the Array and restarted it in Normal Mode. It looks like all came back successfully, I've attached the diagnostics log just in case. Disk2 is showing as "Unmountable: Unsupported partition layout". I anticipated this as it hadn't been added to the array yet only "cleaned'. I am asking for confirmation that I should be good to Format Disk 2 as the next step? Thank you. server-diagnostics-20220623-1727.zip

June 24, 20224 yr Author Thanks for following up. It was pretty quick and it added to the array without issue but it was late yesterday here so I didn't do anything further. I reviewed the shares, folder and file structures today and it all looks good. I've started the rsync of the data from the next 8TB drive onto the array, all looks good so far. Very much appreciate everyone's input and assistance, I would have been lost and likely done more harm then good without it.
