Replace fail disk in ML350 G5 when system is running

[zbait]

Hello.

I have 4x 146GB SAS, Smart Array E200i, run RAID 1+0

One disk had error ""The Physical drive at Port 1I : Box 1 : Bay 2 is reporting S.M.A.R.T. errors."

My question is : may I replace fail disk when W2k3 server system is runnig online?

hi,

Sure, You can do it, except you are using  non hot plug drives.

Backup is aways good, just in case.

Thanks
