I’m just starting with unRAID and I had set up a trail machine using a 2012 Mac mini. I am only using the internal 500gb internal ssd just to test the system. Once I got unRAID installed and setup a share, I copied my music collection into to and it has been happily serving music for a week. Until last night. There must have been a brief power cut in the night, and the mini was off when I woke up. I rebooted it and unRAID started up fine, but then I noticed that my music share was gone. I wasn’t sure what to do, but I could see that unRAID said the ssd had only 200 gb free, suggesting that the files were still there. I then created a new music share hoping that the files would reappear there. Instead the folder remained empty, and a lost&found folder appeared. This folder contains a bunch of randomly named folders (with numbers) and these folders contain the missing files. Some of the original organisation is preserved in the folders but some not.

My question is: is this expected behaviour? I assume the power cut happened at a time when the system was writing to the disk index and this was corrupted enough that unRAID lost the location of everything. Is there something in the setup that I could have done to prevent this (aside from a UPS). Is that fact that I was using an ssd a factor? Any insight would be greatly appreciated
