Sure seems dead if you can’t get it to detect via two different routes.

This is what I think is most likely as well. The capacity on the drive makes me think it’s a SSD and they can just spontaneously fail.

This is why you always need backups. It’s never a question of if, but rather when a drive will fail.

Well, I did mention it was a SSD in the post.

As for backups…
The disks containing the important stuff are higher spec SSD’s.
The data is backed up on 3 different drives - one offsite. So not really worried about dataloss at this point. And I have a fairly recent backup of the Truenas config/db.
The choice to not backup the boot drive, was made to save some money.
Just trying to figure out if a reinstall of Truenas on a new drive is the only option left. 🤷‍♂️
