My hard drives have come from many different places.  My 3 TBs and one 2 TB are from external enclosures that I am not using anymore so I pulled them out of it and use them in unraid.  The rest of them are from when I was using windows 7 to be my media server.  As to where my 2 TBs are from that are having problems I have no idea, I do know that at least one of them was used in with Win 7.

The second 2TB is done and unraid mounted it just fine.  Now to figure out how to do the 3 TB.

I would say leave the partitioning as it is and follow the same steps.  That MBR did have a protective partition starting on sector 1 from what I remember from the original "dd" dump of it.  As long as you did not overwrite it, the rebuild-sb should work as long as you do it on the first partition (I think it was /dev/sdc1 ).

 

rebuild-sb

followed by

rebuild-tree

is what you've been doing. (I think)

 

Just do it on /dev/sdc1

I am currently making a back up of the 3TB so when that is done I will give it a try.  I did check the 3TB yesterday and it does start at 1 so hopefully this will work after the backup is done.

Not that the previous employment of the disks may had caused all the trouble you are experiencing, but, IMHO, the related bug could be parted into two:

1) the EFI boot sector problem, that could be caused by Windows7 GPT partitioning;

2) the drive corruption, that can or not be related tho the previous behaviour.

The 3TB is back in and working   Following the same steps as I did for the 2TBs seems to work just fine for the 3TB.  The only thing I didnt do was change the start since it was all ready set to start at 1.  Thanks for all of the time and help Joe L!!!!!
