Hi all,
First post here. I was messing with the array on my test system and managed to break it. Don't know how to be honest, but all drive configs are lost and the array is full of "New disk, will be formatted" drives. Before doing that I want to recover the data from the system (Non-essential data but really wanted.) On mounting the drives as Unassigned types I can pull the data off so that's fine, but one drive refuses to offer the Mount option; See image. I'm pretty sure there's data on this drive but I can't see any partition listed. 

One thing I can't remember is which drive was the Parity. I think it was the unmountable drive though so:
Is this how the Parity drive would show up? If so then I should be fine with the data from the other drives.

Thanks for your time folks!

Isn't that the parity drive?

The parity drives don't have (and can't have) any file system - it instead stores the parity of the file system information for all the data disks.

 

So unless you have one or more drives that wasn't detected, then the single drive without a file system should be the parity drive.
