If you use 3DM, you should be able to do it this way: 1. Navigate to the Configure Display. 2. Click on the check box of the failed drive. 3. Click button Remove Drive. 4. Physically remove the failed drive and replace it with a new drive. 5. Click on the check box of the new drive. 6. Click button Add Drive. I haven't actually tried it myself, but this should work. -Dave - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
