UNRAID: Two Failed Drives!
Unraid dual drive failure test — can your array really survive two failed disks? In this video, I simulate the failure of two drives and walk through the full rebuild process using 18TB replacements to see how Unraid handles real-world redundancy. First, I show the existing data on Disk 2 and Disk 3 (including Plex folders), then stop the array and simulate both drives failing. After physically replacing them with two 18TB drives, we assign them back into the array and start the rebuild process. You’ll see how Unraid emulates the failed disks, begins parity reconstruction, and restores data step by step. We also discuss an important detail: once you upgrade to larger drives, future replacements must match or exceed that new size. Finally, we verify that all data is restored with zero errors and confirm the drives return to normal operation. If you’ve ever wondered whether Unraid redundancy really works in a two-drive failure scenario, this hands-on test shows exactly what happens. ⭐ Like & Subscribe If this helps you, hit 👍 and subscribe 🔔 — it really supports the channel. 💸 Support & Bonus Some links below are affiliate links, which help support the channel at no extra cost to you.
