Raid 1+ 0 problem with smart Array 5300, windows 2000 SP4

I have done probes to broke and rebuild a 1 + 0 raid.
I have not had problem to broke a raid but I have not able to rebuild raid.
On ACU I have not able to find correct option
I do not know how I can configure new disk on raid.

Generaly : )
If you have raid you can savely remove one disk and replace with other one.
You no need to do noting. Just remove disk and replace with new or same disk.
Hard RAID CTL will rebuild automaticly.

What you mean with this :
" have not had problem to broke a raid"
unplug one disk ?

Claudio,

Try rebooting your server with only the 'good' disk in - you should then get some SCSI/RAID BIOS options to help you.

Look at that

The array A need disk for rebuild with this
setting
SCSI drive port 2 SCSI ID 0

but you have drive on
SCSI drive port 1 SCSI ID 0
