Hello,
I have a ICH10R raid 5 setup, with 6x 1,5TB WD disks.
One of the HDD's failed, and it actually seems to be broken. I can't format it etc.
So i bought a new harddrive, i wanted an identical harddrive to the one that just failed,
but i couldn't find any stores in my country with WD15EADS disks in stock.
So i bought a Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 1,5TB instead.
Intel Matrix Storage Manager also reports that the Seagate drive is of the exact same size as my WD drives. (1397.2 GB)
The problem now is that i can't add this drive to the raid. It just appear underneath "Non-RAID Hard Drives".
If i right click on it, i have the option "Mark as spare". I tried to do that, and reboot my computer, but then it's just listed
as a spare drive, i have no options of rebuilding the raid to that hdd.
Anyone have any idea how to add this drive to the raid, and start rebuilding it?
I'll add a screenshot of how it looks in Intel MSM.
