Question

Posted

I have an 8TB Seagate disk which is showing 8 'uncorrectable sectors'
All my data in the drive pool is duplicated

The disk currently has 4.87 TB of data.

I have a usb 3.0 Sabrent dual disk caddy which has a rapid 'physical' disk duplication function

If I duplicated the faulty disk to a replacement disk, would this replaced new disk be recognized as valid disk 
Or am I best to remove the faulty disk, add the new disk, and then let stablebit take care of balancing etc ..

If you want to replace, the best way, IMHO, is to:
1. Add a new drive to the machine and Pool
2. Remove the faulty drive through the GUI of DP
3. Let DP do its magic (may take a while)
4. Remove the faulty drive from machine.
