Wondering why all dynamic volumes Raid5 array have the "Reactivate Disk" option under the right click?
My only guess is that it could be becuase I just created the array, quck formatted it and its now "29% complete on the Resynch"
Here's a screen cap...be sure to maximize it in IE, i know it's huge but I didnt have time to scale it down and keep it viewable and i had to cap the entire monitor screen cause when i hit alt it makes the context window (right click) go away.

Also, all volumes 0 - 7 with the exception of the system volume 2, have the "Reactivate Disk" available.
Thanks all...

Thanks for the quick replies,
Does it always resync when first created? I have never paied attention before but on creation I would have figured it would have said Syncing...
no biggie though, i will award points if they go away after the resync
thx

It is very seldom that I create software based raid sets... but I believe your screen shot looks normal to me... You just need to wait for the initial synch to occur...
