This command allows you to remove an existing Array Drive. All the data of the Array
Drive will be lost ! Before you confirm the security request with <Y>, you should be sure
about this choice.
Note: if an Array Drive has been removed, it can only be rebuilt without data loss if it is re-
constructed in the exact same order it had been built before, and only if the components of
the Array Drive, that is the Host Drives, have not been modified in any kind whatsoever in
the meantime.

This submenu option allows you to add a Hot Fix drive to an existing RAID 1, RAID 4, RAID
5, or RAID 10 Array Drive.
There are two different types of Hot Fix drives:
Private and Pool Hot Fix drives.
A Poo l Hot Fix Drive is a spare drive within the so-called Hot Fix Pool. A drive in a Hot Fix
Pool is available for several Array Drives as a Hot Fix drive. Thus, several Array Drives can
share one Hot Fix drive. Of course, once this drive has been used by one of the Array
Drives, it is no longer available for the others.
A P
rivate Hot Fix drive is dedicated to one RAID 1, RAID 4, RAID 5 or RAID 10 Array Drive.
Only drives that meet the following requirements are suitable as Hot Fix drives:
1. The Logical Drive that is to become a Hot Fix drive must not be an active component
of another Array Drive.
2. The Logical Drive that is to become a Hot Fix drive must have a storage capacity
greater than or equal to the storage capacity of the smallest Logical Drive of the Array
Drive. Example: A type RAID 5 Array Drive consists of the following components:
Logical Drive 0
2000MB
Logical Drive 1 1500MB
Logical Drive 2 1100MB
Logical Drive 3 2000MB
