    Striking is that, although the speed is horrible (1.6MB/sec on average, while the disk should be able to do 160MB/sec), ddrescue still hasn't found any really unreadable sector.

    @Mijzelf whats your thoughts?

    Now it is scraping failed blocks... and that seems to be very time consuming;
    100 kB took about 1 hour.

    What to do? Consider it done, or keep it going?

    There are 40MB non-scraped sectors left. On a 2TB filesystem that is 0.002%. According to e2fsck
    /dev/md2: 97078/274325504 files (3.5% non-contiguous), 1096506963/2194601472 blocks
    around 50% of the disk is not even used. So statistically you loose around 20MB of data if you stop now. But there is no guarantee at all that that 20MB can be recovered if you continue. In theory, if you save the logfile, you can continue where you stopped. That's the purpose of the logfile. But shutting down the old disk might change things a bit.
    If your bitcoin wallet worth a million Euros is on that disk, I'd continue now. In most of the other cases I'd save the logfile in case there appears to be a major blocking filesystem error, and call it a day.

    Haha, thanks for your input!

    I'll be away for a couple of days now, but what would be the next step?
    - Mount the new disk together with the other two working disks. And then reboot the NAS? Are there any specific commands etc that's of interest at this stage?

    what would be the next step?

    First put the 3 disks (the 2 old good ones, and the new copy) in the NAS and boot it. It won't hurt, and you'll never know.

    If the volume doesn't come up, you'll have to examine the raid headers, and rebuild the array correspondingly, as you did at the beginning of this thread.

    I've inserted the 2 old good disks together with the new copy and rebooted the NAS. It starts beeping and when opening the WUI it says the RAID is crashed/Full.



    And when examining the status of the array;

    According to /proc/mdstat the array is assembled and up. So recreating the array shouldn't do much. What happens if you just try to mount it?

    Hmm... are we back at square 1?

    Tried to mount
    ~ # mkdir -p /tmp/mountpoint
    ~ # mount /dev/md2 /tmp/mountpoint
    mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/md2,
           missing codepage or helper program, or other error

           In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
           dmesg | tail or so.


    tried that command and looked at the last row

    [  533.041160] EXT4-fs (md2): bad geometry: block count 2194601472 exceeds size of device (2194601328 blocks)

    tried to resize (according to your previous comment)
    ~ # resize2fs /dev/md2
    resize2fs 1.42.12 (29-Aug-2014)
    The filesystem can be resize to 2194601328 blocks.chk_expansible=0

    Resizing the filesystem on /dev/md2 to 2194601328 (4k) blocks.
    resize2fs: Can't read a block bitmap while trying to resize /dev/md2
    Please run 'e2fsck -fy /dev/md2' to fix the filesystem
    after the aborted resize operation.

    and tried to run that command
    ~ # e2fsck -fy /dev/md2
    e2fsck 1.42.12 (29-Aug-2014)
    e2fsck: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while trying to open /dev/md2
    Could this be a zero-length partition?
