December 10, 20187 yr I am wondering what specifically happens when I: - add a disk to a data array - start the array I see some pre-clear operation starts, but how does this work more specifically? Does it start zero-ing out the drive? Sequentially from the beginning? The reason I ask: I added the wrong drive to the array....a drive which had tons of data on it which I intended to backup to the array... I added a 3tb drive to the array and started the array, about 45 seconds later I realized my mistake and did a clean (web ui) shutdown of Unraid. Does anyone have any suggestions for what I can use to try to recover as much data as possible? If not, some specifics on how the clear process goes such that I can find an appropriate recovery procedure? Thanks
