If you have openmange server administrator with strorage manager or array manger installed just take the drive offline, and replace it and if the rebuild doesnt automatically start just choose the rebuild option.

I have a Dell Poweredge 1600sc server Raid 5 (hardware based) with 3 73g scsi drives running Server 2003. &nbsp;One of the drives has set an occasional error message in the event log and, even though it is still working, I have a replacement in hand and am looking for the safest way to replace the suspect drive.<br />
