I just had two drives ‘die’ simultaneously on my Pegasus R6 which was setup for Raid 5. I know you should only be able to have one drive go down in Raid 5, but I was able to force mount one of the drives after which the utility app said there something about bad blocks on the drive that had been force mounted. The other drive remained dead
After a reboot the utility showed no issues (including no bad blocks) other than one dead drive which i replaced and tried a rebuild. That all seemed to go fine... i ran media patrol which showed no issues. I also ran a redundancy check and again showed no issues...
Most of the data on the logical drive appears to be fine and will open and run (a small amount seem to have corrupted.
However, when i try and move folders and certain files to a new drive I get an error -36 code (I’m on a Mac with Mojave). I can’t rename or delete an files or folders - that comes up with an error -50 code and renamin*just gives a dialogue saying try a shorter name. I also cant write any new files or create new folders on the logical drive, nor will the pegasus eject - it says it is being used by something even with no apps or utilities open. I ran disk utility first aid on it and again, that came back with no problems.
basically the Pegasus utility is shwoung that everything is fine with all the drives and data but the fact I cant, write rename, delete or move any files from it means something is clearly wrong
sorry for the lengthy explanation, but any ideas of anything I might try to resolve this would be much appreciated
