@jhughes welcome to the Rockstor community.

Can you also mention which version of Rockstor you’re currently running (and is this a symptom after an upgrade of either Rockstor or the OS)? Is this a baremetal installation or using a VM (Proxmox or the likes)

on the disks page do any of the disks show with names that include detached?

Finally, if you have access to the command line, could you run a:

lsblk -P -p -o NAME,LABEL,HCTL,FSTYPE

to see what shows up?
