Hi guys,

One of my HD's has "dropped" in my RAID1 config. I use a Silicon Image chipset PCI RAID card. Even though the HD is still listed in the RAID GUI, I cannot get it to rebuild the RAID setup. Could the HD be pooched? It is only about a year old.

Yeah sounds like it has probably bought the farm 🙁

-edit- I've never run a RAID setup but RAID 1 has same data on both so would it be possible to swap them and see if that makes a difference?
 
if you do swap em and the 2nd one works but the 1st original one doesn't then its not gonna work as a raid 1 setup cuz it cant really write to the original one if its broke...
 
Great,
Thanks for the info, guys.
I am still able to access the files from the HD that is still in the setup. Loks like a new HD will be order of the day tomorrow.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. 🙁

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
