July 29, 201213 yr Okay so I had a disk redball on me in my production server - no problem - had a spare disk on hand swapped it in and rebuilt the data - all is good. Now I am playing with the failed disk on my windows box - running unraid under virtualbox (Development/test rig) and mapped the drive as a raw drive. Was hopping to run preclear on it without commiting this machine to that task for a couple days - but can't see the smart data through vbox - oh well... Started the array no parity, only drive in the array, 3101 writes then happen to the disk - though that was odd maybe reiserfs commits? proceed to look at the system log and notice that it wrote a new mbr on disk. All the data seems to be there can read directories etc. Just wondering why the new MBR? attached is the syslog syslog-2012-07-29.txt
