there is an option to continue rebuilding on error in the HighPoint HRM.

This option will enable rebuilding to ignore bad sectors and attempt to make your data
accessible. It is important to backup immediately after backup is complete and replace
or repair the disks with bad sectors.
Critical array becomes disabled when you removed faulty disk
If this is the case, you may have removed the wrong disk. When you remove the wrong
disk from a critical array, the array status may become disabled. Data is inaccessible
for disabled arrays. Follow these steps to restore the array to the previous state.
1.
Shut down your PC
2.
Shut down the RocketStor6114VEnclosure
3.
Place all disks back to original configuration
4.
Boot up PC
Your array should be back to Critical status. Identify the correct disk and rebuild from
there.
Online Array Roaming
One of the features of all HighPoint RAID controllers is online array roaming.
Information about the RAID configuration is stored on the physical drives. So if a card
fails or you wish to switch cards, the RAID configuration data can still be read by
another HighPoint card.
