Hi!
I think I've got a problem :-/ I have a QNAP NAS with a 8 disks RAID5.
Some days ago I got a "Disk Read/Write Error" on the 8th drive
(/dev/sdh), with the suggestion to replace the disk.
I replaced it, but after a bit the RAID rebuilding failed, and the QNAP
Admin Interface still gives me a "Disk Read/Write Error" on /dev/sdh.
Plus, I can't access to the RAID data anymore :-/
I was following this guide
https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/RAID_Recovery but, since I
haven't got any backup (I promise I will do them in the future!) I'm
afraid to run any possibly destructive command.
How do you suggest to proceed? I would like to make a RAID excluding the
8th disk in order to mount it and backup important data, but I don't
even know if it is doable :-/ Moreover, looking at `mdadm --examine`
output I see that sdb seems to have problems too, also if QNAP Admin
Interface doesn't report it.
Here some informations about the machine status:
