Replacing a defective drive in the RAID system
Replace defective RAID drives with a new drive in order to recover secure RAID1 state. The
RAID software reports the defective drive and returns details of the operable hard drive.
The functioning hard drive is indicated in BIOS by its port number, or by the RAID software
by its device port number.
Figure 11-2
Always replace the defective drive with a new one of the same type and capacity.
To be able to boot from the RAID system, you must place this first in the list of bootable
sources in the BIOS "Boot" setup menu. Otherwise the system will boot from the hard disk
you have just installed and the message "Operating system not found" will be displayed.
NOTICE
The new HDD can be integrated into the RAID system at operating system level by means
of the RAID software. Synchronization may take several hours, depending on system load.
