November 13, 20232 yr I think I may have messed up here. I recently noticed that I had a recently installed drive showing as "Unmountable: Wrong or No File System." I restarted my server to see if it would solve the problem which it did not. So I took the disk out of the array. Started then stopped. Then put the disk back in it now says it is rebuilding but the message "Unmountable: Wrong or No File System." Is still shown next to the drive and while it says contents are emulated I believe I may have wiped them from parity in my neglagence. Not sure how to proceed from here and any help would be appreciated. Thanks so much in advance. Tower Syslog.zip
November 13, 20232 yr Author Here ya go! Repaired the file system. Was able to remount the disk and start rebuild and my total arrray size went back to normal and data was accessibel again. But after a few minutes the disk became disabled again. Tower Diagnostics.zip Edited November 13, 20232 yr by caelar900
November 13, 20232 yr Community Expert Solution Looks more like a power/connection issue, replace cables and try again.

Will do, can I safely cancel the current parity sync, spin down the array and power down? I assume so. And then when I boot back up will I need to do any of the removing the disk from the array starting, and then putting it back and starting. Or will the parity sync just start back up when the array is started if the disk is now being recognized properly?
November 13, 20232 yr Author So things just went bad from worse in replacing the cables I managed to break the sata connector on another drive... If I only have on parity drive am I going to be SOL. Replacing the sata port on the drive shouldnt be an issue but is that going to make things show as out of sync and prevent me from being able to recover the data and restart the server?
November 14, 20232 yr Author So managed to repair the SATA port and fix the power issues with the original disk. Disk rebuild running now so should be good. Will check back in if it does not complete successfully for whatever reason. Appreciate the help!
