Homelab Hero · No. 003
Monday, 9:04 PM. The power flickered an hour ago, and now your four-drive storage pool reports one drive faulted. The pool is still serving files, the other three drives show no errors, and your last snapshot went to the backup box last night.
Your call:
A. Pull the faulted drive now and start rebuilding onto the spare tonight
B. Check the logs and drive health, reseat the drive, confirm the backup is good — then decide
C. Leave it until the weekend — the pool is still serving, so it can wait
100 Hero Points for the right call — 200 on the Friday Boss Fight. From Issue No. 003 of The Homelab Herald. Your result lands on the next page, ready to share.
