I'm now having trouble reading anything from the array. I'm hoping it's rutabaga being flaky and not the drives.
I have a complete copy of the data from a couple of weeks ago, so it shouldn't be a big deal if I can't continue with my backup.
Because all the drives I intend to use in the new NAS are occupied I'm going to need to move stuff around a bit circuitously. I'll start on that tomorrow seeing as how the copy I've been running for the last 4 hours has now crapped-out!
