tab.
3.
Under
System Setting

replace or repair any disk(s) with bad sectors.
Critical array becomes disabled when faulty disk was removed
If this is the case, check to make sure you removed the correct 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 previous state:
1.
Shut down your PC.
2.
Shut down the RS643xS Enclosure.
3.
Place all disks, including the removed disks, back to original array configuration.
4.
Boot up PC.
5.
Once array is back to critical status, identify the correct disk (using the event log)
and replace it.
Disabled Arrays
If two or more disks in your array go offline due to an error or physical disconnection
your array will become
disabled
.
To recover a disabled array, using the ‘Recover Tab’ will yield the best results. To
utilize the
Recover
tab, you will need to insert the
exact
physical drives that are listed
on the recover list. The goal of using recover is to get the RAID status back to
critical/normal, allowing you to access and back up your data.
