Hi,
I am struggling with my ShareSpace since today.
There seemed to be a power outage and now I am unable to mount the RAID 5 under OS 10.8. I’ve been through the majority of the posts and tried various ways to get hold of the issue, but since I am not the Linux pro I might need some assistance. It might be fairly easy and a HDD simply crashed, but after I’ve read the posts it might be something else as well. Especially since all 4 drives are labeled ‘Failed’ now.
This is what I can provide you with for now. As said I’m nowhere near a Pro, so not sure if anything below is helping so far.

Thanks very much in advance & any help is much appreciated.
Although the device is still within warranty I’d like to keep my data.
Thanks !
