the os and config are stored on the disks, so if the array won't boot, then you have lost the config as well.
I also don't want to go thru trying to start completely over if there is some additional problem w/ my hardware, which I sort of suspect since the blank LEDs are not what I expected for simply failed disks.
well you can test hardware if you have a fresh/unused disk, just factory default with the one disk (doesn't take but a few minutes), then you can try booting it in each of the slots.
