Hi,
I built an Unraid box last year and have been trucking along happily with it since. Unfortunately I might be having an issue with the USB boot drive and I'm not sure how to salvage this without losing around 40TB of stuff.
Everything was working fine last night but when I woke up Sonarr wasn't able to talk to SAbnzbd. I frowned and went to the dashboard which didn't load. After restarting the thing now it's not booting. On pressing power I get fifteen seconds of a black screen, a quick logo flash, and then a black screen with an unblinking white cursor in the top left. Nothing else happens.
I don't have a backup of the USB drive anymore, unfortunately. I was very sick for almost all of this year and while I had one it's ancient and I don't even know where it is. When I plug the drive into my Windows machine it just tells me to format it and I'm pretty sure that would be a bad idea. I don't know which drives are which within the Unraid box and so I don't think I should be trying to make a new boot USB blindly. Can anybody point me in the direction of some steps I can take to unfuck this, if there are any?
