September 3, 201312 yr I had a power disruption to my external esata enclosure, reset, then started parity check. Came back three days later, it was showing missing the 2 discs in my esata enclosure. Restart, now it finds both drives, but 1 drive has red-ball with 0 errors. The array is started and it says configuration valid, what do I do next? I can stop the array, but there is not parity check or trust array options that I see?
September 3, 201312 yr Post a picture of the Web GUI just to confirm ... ... but it sounds like you're indicating that parity is valid, but one drive is red-balled => is that correct? If so, it apparently finished the parity check before the power interruption; but has had a write error on the drive that's red-balled. If that's the case, you need to replace the drive. If you're confident the drive is actually good, you can stop the array; unassign that drive; restart the array (it will show the missing drive); then stop it; reassign it; and start it again => UnRAID will then rebuild the contents on that drive.
September 3, 201312 yr Author I know the drive is good, just a power failure. I am re-building the drive now, thank you. I will run a parity check after re-build to confirm everything is good, if there are errors still I will RMA the drive (nearly brand new 4tb seagate) and get a new one. Thank you!
