Introduction
So currently I have a software RAID setup using MDADM on Debian. It is setup as a RAID 10 through a NAS so available over the network. All of the drives are connected through a USB multiplier enclosure. I believe the USB enclosure is starting to have some problems as the drives become disconnected randomly from the computer hosting them. For this reason I have purchased a hardware RAID card that will do the job for me better than the software RAID.
Problem
So when switching over to the new RAID card, it will have to format the drives to structure the new RAID. For this reason, I need to get the data off of the old one. I am having problems with going over the network to do this because of the enclosure randomly going off. So my question is, in a RAID 10 setup, can I take two of the drives (which supposedly have all the data on it), plug it in directly to the backup computer and pull the data off like that? Or will the data not be recognized and accurate since it has been pulled off of the RAID controller?
When trying to copy a single file through the network, I get an error from windows stating "The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error". I can create new files and folders over the network so it doesn't have any permissions incorrect...
Further Information
So my RAID consists of 4 physical drives. From my thought process, I can break apart the RAID 1 layer into the two separate RAID 0 sections. One of those sections will then contain all of the data so it might be easier to work with just one section rather than the RAID 10 together:
When trying to read each "0 section" I tried to mount the section and I get the error "unknown filesystem type 'linux_raid_member' so I am guessing that I will not be able to section it.
Does anyone know of any other way to section the data?
