Re: Recover filenames from failed RAID0

Dear linux-raid mailing list,

I have a RAID0 array of four 3TB disks that failed on the "third" disk.

I am aware of the non-redundancy of RAID0 but I would like to recover
the filenames from that RAID0. If I could recover some data it would
be a bonus.

Below you'll find the outputs of the following commands
mdadm --examine /dev/sd[abcd]1
fdisk -l

where sda1, sdb1, sdc1 and sdd1 should be the 4 RAID devices.

What could be my next step?

I thank you for your time

Michel Dubois
