May 15May 15 Hello all.I'm fairly new to Unraid. I've had my server up and running without issues for 8 months, until now. Yesterday, while browsing the Unraid GUI, I noticed a red X next to my one and only parity drive. A quick Google search shows that it could be many things. Of course, my first instinct was a failed drive. But I went through the troubleshooting steps anyway. So far I:Stopped the ArrayRemoved ParityRestarted the array without parityStopped the array againAdded parity againStarted the array to rebuildAnd this is where we are now. The drive doesn't rebuild. The red x remains there. Full disclosure, my unraid server is a mini PC with 5 drives attached via DAS (Direct Attached Storage) hard drive enclosure. While the array was stopped and the server was powered down, I removed the drive several times and reinstalled it. I can't run a SMART scan either. Nothing happens when I try. Any help would be appreciated. tower-diagnostics-20260515-0803.zip
