Hello,

I had one of 5 drives fail in my raid 5 setup and now many files are unreadable.. Isn't raid 5 supposed to compensate for exactly this happening?

It looks like you have multiple drives with problems here:

Here's sde unhappy:

Dec 25 18:36:27 localhost kernel: sde: Current: sense key: Recovered Error
Dec 25 18:36:27 localhost kernel:     Additional sense: Recovered data - recommend reassignment

sdb seems to be overheating:

Dec 26 11:25:56 localhost kernel: sdb: Current: sense key: Recovered Error
Dec 26 11:25:56 localhost kernel:     Additional sense: Warning - specified temperature exceeded

Now sdf is unhappy..

I don't know if this completely explains the failure, but it seems you have bigger problems than one bad drive, and RAID5 cannot handle multiple drive failures.
