NVIDIA Raid Mirror Rebuild

Hello,
I have an ASUS M2NPV-VM Motherboard and it has the NVIDIA raid controller built in. I setup a 2 disk mirror with it and the disks are 300GB. I accidently removed one of the RAID drives and put in a 1TB drive. I removed the 1TB drive once I found out NVIDIA wanted to rebuild it. Now, I am back to 1 drive and the RAID controller thinks it is at a 10% rebuild.

I am trying to find out the best steps and easy way to get back to a 2 disk RAID (mirror). Should I format the 2nd disk and add it back to the machine? If so, What must I do to tell the NVIDIA raid controller to rebuild onto the new disk. Like I mentioned, it currently thinks it is rebuilding the 1TB drive and is stuck at 10%. That drive is no longer in the computer.

Thanks for your help.

OK, I will try that. But, should I try the 1TB it wanted to work on earlier, or try another blank 1TB drive?

I will try to remember to let you know what direction it will go, but I will accept your answers for now since they seem like the only real choices I have and I might not get to this until tonight or tomorrow evening. Thanks for your help.
