New development.
I recieved the new Cpu today, didn´t make any difference.
Tried something new.
Booted up the system with just one disk (empty disk, not part of the array) and was able to get to the boot menu.
Tried to perform a "reinstall OS" didn´t work.
Then did a memory test still with the just one disk, it did 2 passes and no errors.
Then started up the system without disk 1 and 5 and holy marshmellows, it booted, happiness is at hand;-)
I´m backing up everything on the Nas right now, so wont touch anything until it´s done.
The reason for emitting disk 1 and 5 is that I used tray 1 for the "try and see if this works" disk.
Disk 5 had shown a large amount of reallocated bad sector counts.
Could this be it??
That disk 5 was the fault?
