I just keep having bad luck with my RAID 5 array. One drive (out of 4 WD15EARS drives) was dropped from the array due to powerfailure and rebuild failed because of bad sectors on another drive. I have been spending the last few days with ddrescue, copying the data from the drive with bad sectors to the dropped one. The problem is now that the drive has bad sectors have spread where the md superblock used to be on the faulty drive (the very last sectors of the drive, right?), so how do i force it to assemble without it and with one drive missing? What drives are by the way the best consumer grade drives to use for RAID operation? I really, really hope this is the last time i need to ask you guys for help. -- Lasse Jensen (fafler at gmail dot com) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
