    It was raid5 with 4 disks ( 3tb-3tb-1tb-1tb) But it looks like 3 of those were broken.

    I did a raid recovery to a company and they repaired the disks and i was be able to get the data.


    thanks for your time.

    i have a raid which is inactive and i cant start it.

    The Story: i noticed that some files were missing from my OMV NAS then i noticed a strange noice ( the HDD loop noise) in a disk.

    We had some power losses some days ago and propably the disk failed


    I bought a new 3TB WD disk to replace it but i cannot do it through UI. I cannot see the inactive raid






    Code
    root@omv:~# mdadm --detail --scan --verbose
    ARRAY /dev/md2 level=raid5 num-devices=4 metadata=1.2 name=omv:raid2 UUID=51ba1bbb:8efc31e5:ec43d7e9:41d7c49d
       devices=/dev/sdb,/dev/sdd,/dev/sde,/dev/sdh
    ARRAY /dev/md1 level=raid5 num-devices=4 metadata=1.2 name=omv:vault UUID=b2ccf659:68a2869a:5397135e:8bfa8312
       devices=/dev/sdc,/dev/sdg,/dev/sdj,/dev/sdl
    INACTIVE-ARRAY /dev/md0 num-devices=2 metadata=1.2 name=omv:box UUID=febf00b0:e4c9c38a:5ce780db:c8f992e6
       devices=/dev/sdf,/dev/sdk


    I bought a new 3TB to replace the broken one.

    I tried to add the new HDD from ssh but i couldnt

    The new disk is the sdi.

    i am 99% that the raid is raid5.


    is there any way to fix it ? ( i can buy more disks if need it.)


    Thanks
