Recovering RAID Array after "No volume Found" error
A client of mine has a ReadyNAS 3200 and after a hard drive started to become corrupted, it stopped working. When I log into the web console, it gives me an error saying "no volume exists" . It was setup to use RAID6 so there should be redundancy in scenerios such as this. Regardless, I really need to get this working and I need some help.
Here's what I have found...
The unit is trying to mount the device "/dev/c/c" however this doesn't exist.
Here's is the output of the mdadm scan:
NAS3200:/c# mdadm -D --scan -vv /dev/md/0: Version : 1.2 Creation Time : Thu Mar 18 04:01:19 2010 Raid Level : raid1 Array Size : 4194292 (4.00 GiB 4.29 GB) Used Dev Size : 4194292 (4.00 GiB 4.29 GB) Raid Devices : 12 Total Devices : 12 Persistence : Superblock is persistent Update Time : Sat Jan 30 15:12:25 2016 State : clean Active Devices : 12 Working Devices : 12 Failed Devices : 0 Spare Devices : 0 Name : 003048FAF4C0:0 UUID : 4180ac37:4a2fedcc:ecdf1aac:62a18ee9 Events : 75517 Number Major Minor RaidDevice State 0 8 1 0 active sync /dev/sda1 1 8 17 1 active sync /dev/sdb1 2 8 33 2 active sync /dev/sdc1 3 8 49 3 active sync /dev/sdd1 4 8 81 4 active sync /dev/sdf1 5 8 65 5 active sync /dev/sde1 6 8 97 6 active sync /dev/sdg1 7 8 113 7 active sync /dev/sdh1 8 8 129 8 active sync /dev/sdi1 9 8 145 9 active sync /dev/sdj1 10 8 161 10 active sync /dev/sdk1 12 8 177 11 active sync /dev/sdl1 /dev/md/1: Version : 1.2 Creation Time : Wed Sep 23 11:16:53 2015 Raid Level : raid6 Array Size : 5242240 (5.00 GiB 5.37 GB) Used Dev Size : 524224 (512.02 MiB 536.81 MB) Raid Devices : 12 Total Devices : 12 Persistence : Superblock is persistent Update Time : Sat Jan 30 15:11:03 2016 State : clean Active Devices : 12 Working Devices : 12 Failed Devices : 0 Spare Devices : 0 Layout : left-symmetric Chunk Size : 64K Name : 003048FAF4C0:1 UUID : bad515a8:ea150314:4f2d666e:73879304 Events : 145 Number Major Minor RaidDevice State 0 8 2 0 active sync /dev/sda2 1 8 18 1 active sync /dev/sdb2 2 8 34 2 active sync /dev/sdc2 3 8 50 3 active sync /dev/sdd2 4 8 66 4 active sync /dev/sde2 5 8 82 5 active sync /dev/sdf2 6 8 98 6 active sync /dev/sdg2 7 8 114 7 active sync /dev/sdh2 8 8 130 8 active sync /dev/sdi2 9 8 146 9 active sync /dev/sdj2 10 8 162 10 active sync /dev/sdk2 11 8 178 11 active sync /dev/sdl2
I also confirmed that the unit see's each disk in a RAID array:

Any help you can give me would be VERY appriciated!

You may have to transfer the disks in order to a linux box and recover that way
have a look at
There is another more involved thread of the forum
and there are some windows based software packages once agine which involve installing the discs into a windows machine
Reclaime and UFS Explorer
I am sure the MDGM will reply to this and advise

This could be a data recovery situation. The output you have provided shows that the array on which the data volume sits has failed to start.
Can you send me your logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig)?

This is a 3200 which runs RAIDiator-x86, which uses EXT4 not BTRFS.
Disk 12 has failed. It has a huge reallocated sector count and has failed basic self-testing.Also the volume failed to mount. This does sound like a data recovery situation so you would be best to contact support if you wish to purchase a data recovery contract. Please note that data recovery may be unsuccessful.
It looks like you have attempted to fix the problem yourself which appears to have only succeeded in making the problem worse.
It's one thing to attempt to recover data using a Linux machine when the array, volume, disks are fine. It's quite another to attempt data recovery when there are problems with one/more disks, the volume and the array.- Davexyz2Aspirant
I recovered an ext volume from an NV+v! which had a disc "fail" using ufs explorer
