07SEP22 - Customer had 6 sas drives and reported that his M3 server failed to boot. Customer moved all 6 sas drives to a working M4 drive but could not get the raid to mount. Investigations show that the customer made the mistake of creating a new 6 drive single raid 5 volume overwritting the original raid configuration that was previously used.

It was found that there were 3x70gb drives and 3x 900gb sas drives. 2 seperate raid 5 volumes were found.
