My qnap 8tbx4 raid 5 has a drive that popped up with am alert and some bad blocks. A couple days later the bad block count has gone from to 30 to over 1,0000.

I’ve ordered another drive, but is there a way to repair it and stop the bleeding? Is my onlychoice to chunk iy and hope the rebuild finishes?

Thanks!

    This is not the time to repair, it’s the time to ask if you have a good backup in case the array doesn’t rebuild correctly
