Are you sure you swapped the correct drive?&nbsp;

Yes, it is definitely the correct drive.&nbsp; I found it so strange it went from degradated to dead immediately upon removal.&nbsp;

Can you post mdstat.log (from the log zip file)?

Looks like md127&nbsp; (the data volume) is completely absent now.&nbsp;

Do you have a back up of the data?
