Ever have one of those days when you're excited to finally get a RAID running and you replace a bad drive and you replace another bad drive and you replace the two remaining bad drives and you slowly come to the realization that it's probably not the *drives* that are bad....

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-

@Momentrabbit With that said, doing a(nother) complete factory reset with only new drives installed, so the initial filesystem is also factory reset, seems to have allowed it to keep from hanging or misbehaving overnight. I'll see if it hasn't fallen over by the time I get home today.

@ElectricKeet Eh. So now I get to put the project aside for a couple of weeks, assemble a micropc tower, and install FreeNAS on it. Just a minor delay.
