I suppose the second failed drive is still mostly alive, just has some unreadable areas? If so, I suggest that you get another new clean drive, and while your mdadm array is stopped, copy whatever you can with e.g. dd_rescue from the semi-dead drive to this new one. Then remove the bad drive from the system, and start the array with the new drive instead of the bad one. -- With respect, Roman
