Hello all,
I am new to SNAP servers and the discussion board, but I did not find a solution to my problem. We have a 4500 at work with (4) 250 GB drives. Two of the drives failed. One was apparently completely out of commission as it was no longer showing up. The other was listed as unable to read. Our IT guys replaced the drives and now we can log in but the data is gone. I don't think our IT guys did anything beyond physically installing the drives. Is there something more we can do to recover data, or is there even a chance with 2 drives failed? I'm still unsure why the system was not set to send an email in the event of a drive failure.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
