Disk sda on 5Big1 NAS
by Kippara » Wed Jul 15, 2020 12:39 am
If disk sda holds the firmware and kernel information and my 5Big1 NAS is set up as RAID 5 can I hot swap sda disk in the event of it failing?

No, if sda completely fails than the nas won't boot as it cannot load the firmware. In such an event you will need to install the firmware again on sda first. If disk is not broken but firmware is corrupt on sda than a repair is possible using the standalone kernel and fvdw-sl console. In case nas boots but sda8 partition (part of raid5) cannot be added to the array a repair can be attempted by initializing the disk.If that doesn't solve it and disk must he replaced a new install of the firmware on a new disk may be required.

Hi
In addition with fvdw's post, by a manual command, you will be able to restore your raid5 (and then your data) after changing sda5.
On such case, we will give the instructions.
