September 30, 20178 yr I had a drive that was starting to get some bad sectors (3TB drive) so I followed the steps on:https://wiki.lime-technology.com/Replacing_a_Data_Drive with an 8TB drive as the replacement drive. Yes, parity drive is also 8TB. It ran for 18h 40m and now it shows that drive (DISK 2) as Unmountable: Invalid partition. Free space went from 20.4 TB to 18.4 TB. Seems like the 1 TB that was on there got moved somewhere and it just shrunk the array?

September 30, 20178 yr Author Diagnostics attached. What would you like me to do with the Check Disk Filesystems page? Reading the first line it says: "If the drive appears to be missing, then you are definitely not in the right place! This page is only for file system issues." tower-diagnostics-20170930-1231.zip
September 30, 20178 yr 2 minutes ago, blurb2m said: This page is only for file system issues." The drive's not missing. It's unmountable. Hence the need to check it's filesystem
September 30, 20178 yr Author I have the option at the bottom to format the drive.. wondering if it just moved that data to another drive and this one still needs formatted.
September 30, 20178 yr Just now, blurb2m said: I have the option at the bottom to format the drive.. Don't do that.

September 30, 20178 yr Author Should I unassign DISK2. Shutdown, power ON, reassign DISK2 and then should that rebuild option be back? I just have a parity check option right now
September 30, 20178 yr You need to upgrade to rc9, reboot, unassign disk2, start the array, emulated disk2 should now mount (unless there are other issues), stop the array, re-assign disk2, start the array rebuild again.
September 30, 20178 yr Author All steps followed. Will update tomorrow when it finishes rebuild. Thank you both for your assistance!
September 30, 20178 yr If all went well disk2 will already be mounted and accessible during the rebuild.

September 30, 20178 yr Something to do with the Illuminati perhaps? lol, it's just my server list, since I'm always tinkering with them I don't have a complete signature or it would be a pain to keep up to date, so I just list the disks, this way it's easy to update, it's the number of disks on each server, single or dual parity and usable capacity.
October 1, 20178 yr Author FYI: 5 PLEX streams going adds some major hours! Completed and disk returned to normal operations. Thanks again!
