What I find confusing about that post, is ...okay, sdd and sde are in the
filesystem alright. But which drive is the problematic one? You never
explicitly mention that. Then you proceed to post xxd dumps of sdb(!), and
also "strings | grep" and partition listing of sdc(!!!). So which is it, sdb
or sdc, or are you unsure at this point.

Also post stuff directly to the mailing list, as websites go away with time,
whereas the mail archives can be more resilient. (Not to mention asking things
like these on "stackoverflow" is a bit like expecting a useful answer on
Ubuntu Forums).
