Hi All,

My SNAP 4500 GOS 4.4.049 SP3 just reported a degraded RAID 5 (Slot 3 shows 'Disk OK' but no details or data) after an intentional reboot. I have the original Maxtor 7Y250P0 drives.

When I try to repair the raid I get the message 'There are no disks with enough free space to repair this RAID Set. We need at least 236,205 MB to repair the set.'.

This is my first experience with a RAID failure and the manual says I can hot swap a new drive. Can anyone point me to the most recent thread/link to follow for this fix before I start? I assume I will need to purchase a replacement drive and any suggested sources are appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
