This was way easier than I thought it would be. I had RAID 5, popped out the old 3TB, swapped in a new (for me) 4TB and voila - no more flashing orange light or message and drive started rebuilding... thanks for putting my mind at ease in this simple video!
Hey buddy, first of all, thank you for the how-to, very helpfull! Just a quick question. I have a Dell R820 with raid 6, but I dont configured the raid with hot swap. I can follow this procedure that you showed or I need to made the replacement and rebuild via PERC BIOS?
Bro if you have RAID configured on your server you can just pull the failing disk and replace.check this out bro it ihas more details. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5rxFxmH7JDs.htmlsi=52qoQpNS_kb5aqgq
Hi bro. I have server Dell R730 use Raid1 .I shutdown server and replace disk. After that i restart , will server automatic rebuild or not bro? Thanks !
@@iwanderworkar Because, I want to shutdown the server to move to another location. Then after replacing the failed disk, restart the server, server rebuild automatically, or do you have to configure anything else?
