Hi Guys,
Thanks for your help,
The RAID array is back up and running now. The device seems to take a
little while to be recognised and there are still; some error messages
in dmesg but it's working none the less.
I've included the output of dmesg below in case it's useful.
Hopefully it's the relevant chunk.
Thanks again,
Kind regards,
Pete
