Hey guys,
beginning of this week my one of my drives in my encrypted LUKS RAID5 gave up. So right now i can't really use anything on the drives.

My questions right now is how to proceed the best way. I would like to do the following things:
- Use the array and access the data until i've rebuild the array.
- Replace the 4TB drive with larger ones
So is there a possibility without the fifth drive to bring the array in a state for usage?
Is my best way to go:
- staying with RAID5?
- start to replace the first broken drive and rebuild the array?
- replace all the other smaller drives with larger drives and rebuild each time and in the end expanding the array?
Recommendations and feedback are more than welcome and appreciated!
Thank you!
