Degraded Dell RAID 5 on perc 6/i
I have a degraded RAID due to a failed disk. It is not hot swappable. I shut down. Pulled the bad drive. Plugged in a drive from a previous RAID and rebooted. I have cleared the foreign config on the new drive, but when I try to make it a global hot spare, I get the following message:
Physical Disk 0:3: This Physical disk is not suitable to protect all current or potential virtual disks on this controller. Possible reasons include: Insufficient physical disk space, unsupported mix of SAS and SATA type physical disks, unsupported mix of SSD and HDD type physical disks, unsupported mix of 512Bytes and 4KBytes sector size physical disks, unsupported mix of PI capable and incapable type disks and non-SED drive assigned as a GHS when encryption virtual disk is present. Continue with assigning as a global hot spare?
Physical Disk 0:2 and 1:4 are the same. Physical Disk 0:3 is the one that I have installed. The only difference I can see from the other two is the other two are Revision KA05 and the new one is Revision KA02. Below is what the drives show for specs. Am I ok to go ahead and configure for a global hot spare or do I need to do something else?
