I agree with Sarah, make sure those two drives are really dead first. If you have a USB3 port and one of those USB->SATA dongles, that might be a quick and easy way to confirm. Yes. Only one of the 2 disks reported by mdadm as failed, is broken. I almost finished making images of all the discs, and for the second "failed" disc ddrescue reported error-free copying. I intend to use the images to recreate the array. I haven't done this before, but I hope I can handle it... I've been super busy at work today, just finally checking my own email. Thank you!
