So I Read that ZFS should be...

Okay,
Somebody was playing with the power on the server. I have a RAID5 80 TB array whose members show as optimal but the logic volume shows as failed. The drives are fine because I can read their info (temperature for example), and I don't expect there to be much of any data loss.
I tried to...
