So after a drive failure in my new 1.2Tb raid5 array I left the whole system off until my replacement arrived out of fear of a second drive failing. But now the second drive has arrived and the array is restoring itself to full functionality. The downside...its going to take the next 20+ hours at the rate its going.
My question is, is it safe to start transfering media without risking corruption? I have a music collection I would prefer to remain in 1 piece but at the same time direly need to transfer onto the raid array. Should I do it or should I wait until tomorrow afternoon to take care of this?
