Its a 1 year old setup have all up and running and i removed the bad drive by taking out.. normal behaviour would be that raid still shows but as degraded not disappears.. nas is a custom built pc with 4 drives on sata ports 2 ssd and 2 hdd (one of which is the bad smart failed one)

Is there any way i can remount the 1 good drive and make it work and show as a degraded raid or as a single normal drive... or possibly plug t into another pc and recover the data?

Basically i have a small OMV Nas with 2 Seagate Iron Wolf 4Tb in raid 1 on OMV, one of these was failing according to SMART so i decided to remove it and send it back as its still new.. once i booted back up my raid was gone... i tried to put in the drive back and still the same... if i try make the raid again it does not show the 2 drives not even the working one but they do show up in the disks section... trying to make a new file system will erase the good drive as that seems like the only way to make it come back online.. any advise please

Hi Guys

Just did a fresh install of OMV4 on my new server hardware.

Have 4x2TB WD Red and i have created a RAID10

When i go to file system to make one i press create, choose name and file system and all is well it starts making it.. when it gets to end it says DONE no errors come up.

I press the close button on the small popup screen and it shows in here still shows as initializing.. then after a few seconds it disappears completely.. i did a reboot didn't show so i tried again and the same happens... any suggestions please?

Thanks
