If you have a Disk Drive failure:

Keep the Server running, pull the failed Drive, insert the new one.

Then the rebuild start automatic (The Geeen LED is blinkting static).

In your Case you can try this:

Remove the new Drive and boot the Server with only the good one.

If the Server ist online, put the new Drive in.
