Raid5 (Tech help plz)

[Dragnskull]

theres not ech forum so its going here:

I have a question about RAID5:

i knwo if you rebuild the RAID array, you just deleted all your data.

lets say for some reason the RAID array becomes corrupt

In theory, if I were to build a new RAID, but have the hard drives pulled out, would it even let me? or would it simply say "cant do it because theres no hard drives you moron"

would like a real answer fast plz

the answer is NO

Why would you pull out all the hard drives then create a new RAID out of nothing? You would need hard drives currently installed so you have some drives that you can group together.

Thats like, I am gonna eat pizza but there are no slices left.
