MegaRaid 1600

[Justin Bennett]

Yeah, las time this happened, I replaced the drive, brought it back 
online and tried to rebuild it from the good disk mirror. Then both 
disks were blank afterwards. Wondering if there were any tricks. I may 
have just screwed it up.  What I'm going to do is take out the good 
disk, and put in 2 new 18gb drives, theres 2 9gbs now their 5 years old 
or so, I can't find a spare to replace the bad. Create a fresh mirror 
with the 18s. Copy the files over.

Thanks
