If you are dealing with a broken mirror and have installed a new drive, instructions for repairing is in the wiki section.
Other have reported using "co de" instead of config devices works.
Other wise we will need more info on what you are trying to do.

Thanks for sticking with me on this. I currently have a:
SnapSever Model 2000 Series
S/W 4.0.854(US)
H/W 2.0.0
BIOS 2.0.252
S/N 42872
that is working quite well with two drives that are combined to look like a single drive, not a Raid 1 environment. I want to replace the existing 2 - 20 Gb drives that work just fine, with 2 - 160 Gb (ATA-100) drives so that I can have more space. Ultimately, I want to configure them as Raid 1 but that can come after the changing of the drives. So I have heard two possible methods, (1), backup any existing data I have, change the existing environment to a Raid 1, then take out one of the drives and replace it with one of the new 160 Gb's. The unit would then copy the OS to the new 160 Gb drive, and when finished, move it to primary, and fail the second one again replacing it with a 160 Gb drive. The (2) method appears to remove the second drive without changing to Raid 1 first, replace it with a new 160 Gb drive, then have it come up after the OS is copied, move this new drive to primary (either Primary or CS) and then remove the second drive which was a 20 GB drive. I am also not clear on what wiki is (I HAVE read all 500 plus pages, but dont remember that term) and would appreciate any help.
