April 23, 20251 yr I was trying to do some cleanup in my media folder and right clicked on the disc1 beside one of the files thinking it would remove that file from disc1. It deleted the entire disc1 from the media folder. I stopped the array as i didnt want anything else written to the disk. Is there a way to undelete it or recover it. At this point if i pulled the drive as the little bit i could find talks about using recover software on another pc. If i can recover the folder i can then rebuild the parity as it will obviously mess up the parity if i can recover the drive. Any suggestions would be appreciate. I do not have a backup as its all just media i could download again but its 9 TB of media so if I can recover it instead that would be preffered.
April 24, 20251 yr This has hit me before and i had to replace 8TB of content, the important parts I had on my backup but some was lost. I believe the wording in that menu option needs to be updated.
