akhilmathema- Thanks
And thanks to all,
I've got this fixed now, I did not know many more commands prior to your post. I was able to plug the usb device into my Ubuntu computer and ran Gparted or Gnome partition. The device did not come up at first and I did not know why so I double checked the connection. Didn't really do anything but push on the connection to see if it was pushed in all the way. It was pushed in, but still must have had some continuity issue because then the USB drive automounted and came up on my screen. So as it turns out I may have had a connection problem.
I don't know why since I've check this about 10 times because I didn't know enough to check much of anything else, but after running a check from Ubuntu, I unmounted and plugged the drive back into SME server and working fine once again.
I wonder if there is a way to run a Live CD of Gparted or some other Live CD with GUI tools. But on the SME server while SME is running ?
Probably too complicated to get working also.
Thanks again for all the help I will still check out your suggested commands in case I have this problem again in the future.
