Did write happen during the reconstruction? You'll lose not only what
was on the write but also everything on the same strip, including
directories. That's a reason to try with a copy of sdd.

I've got a LVM volume group on the array, but never mounted any of the 
logical volumes during the reconstruction. Not sure if LVM will write 
something in the background that would have messed up things?
