Hi all, I recently had my host boot drive go into read only mode without warning. I was updating a couple VMs and containers, next thing I know my PiHole container stopped responding, the ProxMox web UI stopped responding and the system mounted the drive in read only mode. When I rebooted the system, the drive was no longer recognized as a boot disk. It showed up in my motherboard BIOS though. I took out the drive and connected it to my windows computer. DiskInternals Linux reader is able to see most of the files, I didn't do a deep dive to try and look at everything. I passed that same SSD onto a Ubuntu VM and it can see the partitions including the ProxMox LVM partition.
Even though this SSD is only 3 years old and I'm confident it hasn't reached half the rated write cycles, I can't trust it anymore. So now my plan is to reinstall ProxMox, this time with two SSDs setup in raidz1. Now my question is, is there any way I can recover my VMs and containers from that drive? I don't have anything on it that I can't rebuild, I'd just rather not have to rebuild.
