Hi! I’m from germany and my raid and me needs help. My english isn’t very good, but i think it’s sufficient. And i think, this mailinglist is my last hope ☺ So on, …. Here ist my problem. The raid5 has lost 2 of 5 disks. First one disk and then the second one. I have been trying for several weeks to solve the problem alone … unsucessful ☹ And here some informations about this disaster. !SMART Status for i in a b c d e f; do echo Device sd$i; smartctl -H /dev/sd$i | egrep overall; echo; done; Device sda SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED Device sdb SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED Device sdc SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED Device sdd SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED Device sde SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED Device sdf SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED !mdadm version mdadm -
