Hello guys,
I need some help to recover some data that resides on a disk that was
part of an array in an Iomega device. I connected the disk with a
SATA->USB connector to my computer. An mdadm --examine give me theses
informations:
############################################################
# $ mdadm --examine /dev/sdc1
# /dev/sdc1:
# Magic : a92b4efc

What I cannot achieve is to create a newly empty array and insert that
existing disk inside of it, so I can backup the data elsewhere.
I tried with mdadm --assemble /dev/sdc1 but it says:
mdadm: device /dev/sdc1 exists but is not an md array.
I someone have an idea? It would be really really great :)
