Chapter 16: Solving Problems ● 150 Multiple Failures in the Same Logical Drive Except in RAID 6 and RAID 60 logical drives (see pages 171 and 172), if more than one disk drive fails at the same time in the same logical drive, the data can't be recovered. Correct the cause of the failure or replace the failed disk drives. Then, restore your data (if available). Note: In some instances, RAID 10 and RAID 50 logical drives may survive multiple disk drive failures, depending on which disk drives fail. See Understanding RAID on page 163 for more information. Removing a Failed Disk Drive's Icon Note: You can only complete this task on disk drives that are not included in any logical drive. When a disk drive fails, it may still appear in Adaptec Storage Manager although it is no longer available. To see an accurate representation of your storage space and make it easier to monitor your disk drives, you can remove a failed disk drive from the Physical Devices View. In the Physical Devices View, right-click the failed disk drive, then click Remove failed drive.

Multiple Failures in the Same Logical Drive
Except in RAID 6 and RAID 60 logical drives (see pages
171
and
172
), if
more than one disk drive fails at the same time in the same logical drive,
the data can’t be recovered.
Correct the cause of the failure or replace the failed disk drives. Then,
restore your data (if available).
Note:
In some instances, RAID 10 and RAID 50 logical drives
may
survive multiple disk drive failures, depending on which disk drives fail.
See
Understanding RAID
on page 163
for more information.
Removing a Failed Disk Drive’s Icon
Note:
You can only complete this task on disk drives that are not
included in any logical drive.
When a disk drive fails, it may still appear in Adaptec Storage Manager
although it is no longer available. To see an accurate representation of
your storage space and make it easier to monitor your disk drives, you
can remove a failed disk drive from the Physical Devices View.
In the Physical Devices View, right-click the failed disk drive, then click
Remove failed drive
