Default 4100 SMART error

Hi, new around here, but couldn't find the answer to my question after looking around.

We have a 4100 Software 3.4.803 (US) Hardware 2.2.1 Server # 561563 BIOS 2.4.437

I'm getting SMART errors, which makes me want to replace the drive before it fails. However I'm not positive which drive is failling. The error says:

Disk Driver : Device 0x10006 SMART warning.

This repeats every few hours for the past few days.

However a 'info devices' debug command returns this:

As far as I can tell it's saying that the JBOD system disk is the one with the SMART error?!?!

As it's still running fine I'd like to replace the drive before it fails. The server is used to store install points and downloaded software installers that are not critical, but if lost would cause some time to restore from CDs and re-download. But it's not backed up.


The second part of my question is if I replace a Disk that contains those system files, it doesn't seem those are RAIDED? Will I just be able to replace the failed disk with a similar one? Or should I try to put all the data elsewhere, and then see if we can buy 4 new 120GB drives (currently it has 60GB drives in a RAID 5).
