December 31, 2025Dec 31 Very much a beginner. A few days ago I did a hard reboot by holding the power button. The server got hung up transferring files and after using the terminal to try to reboot it I gave up after several hours. This was after about 20 days of up time and no issues.It's running again but I don't have any exportable user shares. If I click on a drive in the GUI I can see the folders on the array and all the data is still there. I can change the settings to export the individual drives and they show on my Windows machine. But I can't figure out how to reconstruct or reissue the folders in the array as user shares themselves. And if I create a new user share, nothing happens.I imagine I'm missing something very basic here. Ideas?::edited::Additionally if I try to launch Plex I get Execution Error (Server Error) Edited December 31, 2025Dec 31 by BlueScapegoat
December 31, 2025Dec 31 Author I've been messing with it trying to get it working again so I don't know how useful this is, but here's the diagnostics zip archimedes-diagnostics-20251231-0833.zip

Note that the Linux fsck tools for NTFS are limited; recommend running chkdsk on Windows.P.S. Any particular reason for using NTFS for the pool?

I assume XFS to match the array would be ideal? Is there a simple way to switch over?I have another 1 TB nvme sitting here I can install in the system.
December 31, 2025Dec 31 You can reformat, but will need to move/copy any data before doing it, and if there's data there, repair the filesystem first.
December 31, 2025Dec 31 Author I popped the drive in my PC and ran chkdsk and put it back in the server and everything is working properly. Now I'm just going to migrate stuff over to a ZFS formatted drive. Thanks so much for the help, I never would have figured that out.
