Well, I would say you had bad sectors on your disks, if there weren't too many of them, most modern file systems can handle it but still there are possibilities of losing data. But nonetheless, it's a signal to start migrating data.
What I meant for disk failures was really disk failures, there would be no way directly get data out of the disk unless you open it and directly read the plates, in your case, all your data would be totaled as RAID0 offers no redundancy and thus tolerates no single disk failures at all. Your data seems not much and it would not be that hard to migrate a 4TB array. Things would be completely different if you will have to rebuild more even worse migrate a much bigger array i.e. 4x10TB ones. Even if everything goes on well, it will take a few days just to copy the data somewhere else. If there were cascading failures, then there is really not much you can do. I can promise you that once you went through all those nightmare, you will never ever want to do it again. Take into those cost/effort needed, whenever I need to build a personal NAS, I always go with 2/3 biggest capacity NAS/Enterprise HDDs available and leave at least 1 vacant bay so that I can easily add more space without fiddling with existing drives. Even if the NAS eventually become full, I can still simply replace smallest drive with a bigger one and copy the data back.
