well if you removed two drives from your Raid5 array, it might got
competly out of sync and then there is no way to recover. I have never
tried this with my raid, but if you add another disk it well be
re-synced, ergo it tries to rebuild the array out of the CRCs on the
other drives, if you remove two, you don't have enough redudant data to
do this (raid 6 can recover from a 2 drive failure).

I hope you have a backup.
