    Which generally means that 

    • two or more disks are out-of-sync, so are not being assembled into the RAID array
    • two or more disks have failed or
    • the file system is corrupted

    Don't delete any volumes, as that will result in data loss.

     

    Download the full log zip file from the logs page.  If you can't analyze the logs, you can upload the full zip to cloud storage and send me a link via private message (PM).  Make sure the permissions allow anyone with the link to download.  You can send a PM using the envelope link in the upper right of the forum page.

     

    Don't post the link publicly, as there is some privacy leakage when you do that.
