Thinking that since sdb1 was more or less intact it would be able to jump in and work together with sdc1 and sde1 to form a degraded array I could pull data off of.
Here's a paste of the mdadm -E state of things before this happened: http://pastebin.com/f46EWXEA I notice the event count has gone up since then, does this indicate that sdb1 will be too old (non-fresh) to be usable? Perhaps I'll have more luck assembling the array with the known-faulty sdd1 with a little bit of file corruption, or perhaps it was just failing temporarily and got kicked just to be safe?
