are compatible with the remaining volume. If they are not compatible (too small or
wrong disk type), the BIOS deletes them also.
Locating Disk Drives in a Volume
You can use the SAS2 BIOS Configuration Utility to locate and identify a specific
physical disk drive in a disk enclosure by flashing the drive’s LED. You can also flash the
LEDs of all the disk drives in a RAID volume, if they are in a disk enclosure.
When you add a disk drive to a new mirrored volume, the LED on the disk drive starts
flashing. The LED stops flashing when you finish creating the volume.
WARNING: Before you delete an array, be sure to back up all data on the array
that you want to keep.
