Hi,
I'm looking for some help for a friend of mine. They have a Dell PowerEdge T710 server with 3x 146gb sas drives in a raid 5 configuration.
They have bought 4 new 600gb sas drives to replace these. 3x to replace the 146gb drives and 1 as a hot spare.
Can someone please advise me of the best way to replace these drives with the minimum downtime.
I looked at using "replace member disk" in the server administrator and wondered if I used this 1 by 1 on each drive it would get the out come he wants.
It has a PERC 6/I raid controller. Thanks for any comments in advance.
