How to replace RAID Drive

I have an old Proliant DL380 (I think G1) running Windows Server 2003.  I've got four SCSI drives in a RAID 5 config.  I think I need to replace one of the drives (ID 3).  When I run the HP Array Diagnostic, I get this:

I have Array Configuration Utility Ver 7.40.8.0

 

I tried shutting down the server and replacing drive 3 with another one (same size), but when I powered up the server I got an error saying there was no O/S, so I put the old drive back in and the server started up okay.  So how do I replace this drive and get the server to rebuild it?

 

Attached is the entire Array Diagnostic Report
