Hello

I've a problem with my raid0.
The probelmatic disks (2x 1TB wdred) were in usage in my server, now
they got replaced with 3x 4TB seagate in a raid5.

Before I turned them off, I made a backup on an external drive (normal
hdd via USB) via rsync -avx /source /mnt/external/

Whatever happens in the night, the backup isn't complete and I miss files.
So I put the old raid again into the server and wanted to start, but the
Intel Raid Controller said that one of the disks are no member of a raid.

My server mainboard is from Gigabyte a MX11-PC0.

Well I made some mdadm examines, smartctl, mdstat, lsdrv logfiles and
attached them to the mail.

Ow...

This is still the same linux on the server? Because mdstat says no raid personalities are installed. Either linux has changed or you've got hardware raid. in which case you'll need to read up on the motherboard manual.

I'm not sure what they're called, but try "insmod raid1x" I think it is. Could be raid0x. If that loads the raid0 driver, cat /proc/mdstat should list raid0 as a personality. Once that's there, mdadm may be able to start the array.

Until you've got a working raid driver in the kernel, I certainly can't help any further. But hopefully reading the mobo manual might help. The other thing to try is an up-to-date rescue disk and see if that can read the array.

Cheers,
Wol
