Hi Craig,
Sorry for my misleading.
Yes, I agree with you. Also I think that could be a problem because that
was the boot disk. I suggest you backup the important data before you try
to replace the disk0. For more related information, you may also find
something in the internet.

| Thanks again Ken,
|
| I wasn't in the Recovery Console when I tried the /p I was just at a
command
| prompt.
| I'm a little confused, you said at first that Joshua's suggestion may not
| work, but then you
| said replace the problematic disk and it will rebuild itself. I'm
thinking
| that I'm not quite
| understanding what you said. Let me say this I would like to just
replace
| disk 0, I thought
| there would be a problem doing it due to the fact that it was the boot
disk.
| Can I just pull
| out disk 0 replace it and the RAID will rebuild itself?
| Thanks again Ken,
|
| Craig
