The EX4100 has 4 drive bays, so I would assume that you have two drive missing.

Have you confirmed with the client that it was definitely 3 drives as that would be unusual?

It does look like a RAID 5 was in the enclosure.

Have you checked the hex of the two drives you have to see if they are mirrored?

Right click on each raid5 component.
Select properties
Send screenshot

It will show member #
Like 0 of 4 or 1 of 4
If it's raid 5 you can only lose 1 drive

Usually 1 drive has been offline and it's stale
By definition 2 drives must be failed in r5
