hi. i have a 3ware 7410 with 4 250G disk in a raid5 config. at one point i lost a disk and for some reason the system kernel paniced and rebooted. not knowing that the array had gone to a degraded state i did a fsck and began correcting errors that it found. after noticing a lot of unrecoverable files i aborted the fsck where i later learned of the condition of the array. i copied over some important data and left the array unmounted till i was able to replace the failed disk. once the disk was swapped out i had the 3ware card rebuild the array. it was after this that it seems that the disklabel and other related filesystem information has disappeared. there were no errors on the rebuild and as best i can tell the data should be there but i'm not sure of how to access it, if at all conventionally. i'm running 4.8 using the twe kernel module. anyone have any suggestions on how to move forward or am i looking at sending all the disk to a data recovery company? thanks, -r
