Who are we?

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

We are one. We are legion. And we're trying really hard not to forget.

I am upgrading the HDDs on my QNAP TS-432X-eU rack mount NAS. The NAS is connected to a UPS via a USB cable and is set to turn off after 5 minutes if it senses a power loss. What would happen if I were to lose power while resilvering the array? Would it suspend the resilvering, turn off, then resume when power is restored? Or would the array be corrupted?

Should pick up where it left off; nevertheless the UPS and graceful shutdown is always smart for any filesystem.
