Enough said
Saturday, January 17th, 2009Easier than it looked
Friday, January 16th, 2009So far, the rebuild process is going along well. Later on the 14th, I went through the hardware on the system, thinking perhaps a controller had died, or a power splitter had failed. Neither was the case, as I had forgotten that I don’t have any controllers with only two disks plugged in, and the box isn’t actually using any splitters at all. I went through the whole thing and cleaned it out and checked all of the connections, and swapped a few SATA cables that seemed to be iffy just to be safe.
Oh, fun.
Wednesday, January 14th, 2009Woke up this morning, and my fileserver had emailed me this:

Looks like I get a trial-by-fire of MD RAID recovery tonight, once I figure out what broke.
