One of my kids accidentally kicked my server in the motherboard, the mobo appears dead so I upgraded the whole case, mobo, ram & cpu, and migrated my raid card connecting my drive array. Trouble is, one of my array disks is now disabled.

 

I pulled the disabled disk out and inserted again, swapped drive bays but it's not coming back online. It seems like too much of a coincidence that the drive would fail at the same time as the main case was damaged, Could the raid card be damaged? Are there any tests I can do?

Once a disk gets disabled it needs to be rebuilt, if the emulated disk is mounting and contents look correct you can rebuild on top.

Hi, so I haven't gone through this process before, seems a little scary

 

The device is "disabled, contents emulated", are you suggesting the disk may be fine, no replacement? If I start the array and view the disk contents everything looks ok

 

try rebuilding?

If the emulated disk looks fine you can rebuild.

Thanks, rebuilding now, everything looks fine so far
