Re: Two drives in RAID6 array experienced similar error at or near beginning of drive

So, I guess my next question is, what's the recommended way to restore the partition table, given this drive was part of a RAID5 arrangement?

   I'm HOPING, from what you say, it might be a simple case of something
   wiping the partition table. We have had that happen before. In that
   case, if we can reconstruct the partition table, you'll get the array
   back. If not ... :-(
