I have no idea what happened, but I didn't receive an email telling me something went wrong (I have in the past), it was just telling me that my /mnt/ (where my array is mounted) was read only. I did a quick mdadm -D and got this:
Code:
alex@tess:/$ sudo mdadm -D /dev/md0

When I run cat /proc/mdstat I get this:
Code:
alex@tess:/$ cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [linear] [multipath] [raid0] [raid1] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [raid10]
md0 : active raid5 sdg1[6](F) sdb1[0] sde1[5] sdc1[4] sdf1[7](F) sdd1[1]
2441919680 blocks level 5, 64k chunk, algorithm 2 [6/4] [UU__UU]
I don't know what faulty spare means, but every drive was in the RAID5 before, with sdg1 and sdf1 as drives, not spares. Is there any hope of me recovering my data?
