We have a Virtual Disk in RAID 5 using only 5 disks, one disk probably is broken because it was in an alert before. Another disk was accidentally pulled out and then it was marked as Frn-Bad when it was put back in the same slot. So, the 2 disks are marked as Frn-Bad and the 3 others are Online. The RAID 5 doesn't work with only 3 discs.

I think we can restore the virtual disk if we put this potentially good disk that is today in the "Frn-Bad" state as "Online". What do you think? Is it possible to use the LSI MegaRaid controller interface for this?

Just like following the instructions here: Restoring a Hard Drive in Frn-Bad State

Thanks for any help with this. I can't go wrong and lose the virtual disk.

  • There is another disk (SSD-SATA) also in there but I don't know if it is part of the array maybe as a cache
