August 29, 20169 yr OK, so I had a share running low on space & picked up a new 3T disk. Parity was currently 2T, so I replaced that with the 3T While watching it rebuild parity, I noticed that disk 1, which happens to be right next to the parity disk in the server, started getting a ton of errors. Figured I was going to have to replace it next, but didn't know what else to do. Fast forward to the morning, & I happen to walk by the server in the basement, & notice that disk 1 has a red light, instead of green. I also notice that it's sticking out about 1/8th inch. (in a 5 bay vertical disk cage) I pull up the web interface, & take the array offline, then I pull the drive, & re-seat it correctly. However, upon restarting the array, it says the disk is unformatted now. Any thoughts on what I ought to try next? (was a full 750G disk that was going to be the next disk replaced when I got around to it) (Still running V5 as I kept having issues with slow transfer rates on V6)
August 29, 20169 yr If SMART for disk1 looks good start by running reiserfsck. https://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/Check_Disk_Filesystems#Drives_formatted_with_ReiserFS_using_unRAID_v5_or_later
