March 1, 20233 yr Hi All,  In my unraid server I have two disks in the array: disk data and parity. Both are 4 TB. Few days ago I found out that my Parity disk died. I already received a replacement disk from Seagate (also 4TB).  Both old disk and the new one are the same size, thus I understand I should follow these steps https://wiki.unraid.net/Replacing_a_Data_Drive ?So far, I have removed the old disk (Parity) and installed a new one. Then I added it to the array as the Parity disk (sdc).  Before I hit the "Start" button, I just wanted to double check with you that these steps are correct and my Parity disk should rebuild (assuming my Data disk works fine). Â
March 1, 20233 yr Community Expert Solution That's correct, start the array to begin the parity sync.
March 2, 20233 yr Author Thanks Jorge. Parity sync completed successfully. it is better to ask than to recover data 😅
