    Hi Folks,
    I have 2 x WD 3TB black as my storage, using RAID 1 (software: intel rapid storage technology enterprise) and one of them has failed, my RAID array is now degraded.
    I have sourced a new identical HD on newegg and it has now arrived.

    What is the process of installing the new drive and making sure that the files are mirrored correctly onto the newly installed drive, is there a risk that I mirror the new drive and effectively wiping the old good drive?


    appreciate any info, the stuff on the HD is my livelihood :eek:

    System is Win 7 OS is on a SSD that is not on a RAID
    thanks a mill
    T
