Cannot rebuild RAID drive

Asked by CocosDad in Storage Technology, Hard Drives & Storage

Tags: Gateway E-9510T LSI MegaRAID RAID 5

One drive of a 3 drive RAID 5 system failed during the middle of the day.  This is a Small Business Server 2003 and both SQL and Exchange were both open.  Server will actually come up on the remaining 2 drives but both Exchange and SQL will not open.  I went into the LSI Configuration Utility, failed the hot spare and set it to rebuild.  Process gets to about 24% and fails with an error.  Have tried rebuilding both the hot spare and the original failed drive several times each; same error at about 24%   Have installed a new 250GB SATA drive that is currently rebuilding but do not  have that warm, fuzzy feeling.
