AJ Ouellet Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 I've got 7x 4tb drives and 2 of them set as parity. Recently lost 3 drives (won't even power up) 2 were data drives and the last was one of the parity drives. Am I able to re-add those drives and have the array come back up minus the data that was on 2 of the drives or do I need to new-config and start everything over again? Installed the 3 replacement drives and running pre-clear on them now. Link to comment
JorgeB Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 If there are three missing drives you need to do a new config, no way to continue using the existing array, and if the only remaining drive is a parity drive no way to recover any data. Link to comment
AJ Ouellet Posted October 22, 2018 Author Share Posted October 22, 2018 I figured as much. Thanks for confirming it. Link to comment
