    Check Soft-Raid Status

    I have a home server running two 1tb hard drives in a Raid1 Configuration.

    How can I check the status of this Raid?

    Thanks

    theres a lot of useful info and a few different ways to view the raids status in the man pages for mdadm.

    man mdadm
    clear && echo paste url and press enter; read paste; (youtube-dl $paste) | zenity --progress --title="☠" --text "Downloading, please wait" --auto-close --pulsate && ans=$(zenity --file-selection); gnome-terminal -x mplayer "$ans"

    The one I use most of the time is:

    Code:
    sudo mdadm -D /dev/md0
    where the md0 is the name of your array.
