Hi  PGTRI :  

 if i put New HDD- Same array and re-build it will make any problem??

Windows Work Properly? . Becoz this one is the Domain Controller and Some Important Share also there...

Can you please advise me ! step by step?

hi,

There is nothing special. Just remove the affected drive and install a new one in the bay. The rebuild will start automaticaly. Downtime is not needed, because the drives are hot plug. You can face a small performance degardation during the rebuild process.

That's the way it should works , but everything is possible and a valid backup is always must.

Thanks
