readynas RN3220 volume degraded volume resyncing
I have a readynas 3220 RNR-12A, (all 12 drives) originally I had a drive#4 showing as failed, and then drive #11 showing yellow with reallocated sectors. to be safe I did a backup to a 10 TB usb3 dr...
It has to complete the re-sync of the first drive before it starts the second.
I assume you have RAID6 or RAID10, or your volume would be dead. I suggest you check the SMART stats on the one that is syncing, because it may also have issues. If it does, you may want to pull that new drive and wait for the re-sync to complete (or, possibly, fail to complete) and see if you still want to just add that new one to the others or replace the one that's currently syncing. Your volume is probably currently unprotected (depends on the RAID type), so that backup was a good fallback plan, but let's try to get you back up with a good volume and no need to restore the backup data.
