Here is even more info:

# mdadm --assemble --scan
mdadm: /dev/md0 assembled from 2 drives - not enough to start the array.

# mdadm --assemble /dev/sda /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd
mdadm: cannot open device /dev/sdb: Device or resource busy
mdadm: /dev/sdb has no superblock - assembly aborted

Is my array toast?
What can I do?

Thanks
