I assume you have no backup?
Have you checked the health of the disks?
There must be a reason the disks have gone read-only.
I apologize and you may after all be right. I wasn't paying close enough attention to the output of file -sL and I have found something weird in the setup.
There are 3 partitions on each disk.
file -sL reports /dev/sdb1 is level=1 disks=2
file -sL reports /dev/sdb2 is level=1 disks=2
file -sL reports /dev/sdb3 is level=5 disks=2
Level 5? I didn't think the ULTRA 2000 (2 disk unit) supported level 5.
I must have broken it somehow which is unlikely as I tested the USB<->SATA write blocker.
So to find out if it is actually still working I am going to plug the drives back into the NAS unit and fire it up!!!
