So all looks like the sdd4 fails first. Now is the question which steps i have to make for rescue - blocks sizes etc. - now i would do "mdadm --create --level 5 -n 6 --chunk=512 --assume-clean /dev/md2 /dev/sd{a,b,c,f,e}4 missing" and than mount the raid into the mountpoint to look to the files. is that the way? need help.
