Replacing the sas back plane

Hi

I recently had a bay failure - Sas disks are fine, the bay itself is faulty.

I reached out to HPE and they have sent over a new backplane.

Do it remove disks (4x 1.2tb - raid 5), replace the backplane and reinsert the disks? will this cause any damage to raid?

Regards

Hello,

You may refer to section "Cabling" of the HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 Server User Guide for information on storage cabling.

I have done this several times, and I have no problem.

Even if you accidentally mixed the Drive Slots.

But every time, you should have a Backup and notice Drive and Slot#.

P.S.

The Backplane is passive and the Raid Configuration is on the Disks.
