Chapter 16: Solving Problems 150

Multiple Failures in the Same Logical Drive

Ex c ept in RAID 6 and RAID 60 logical driv es ( see page s 171 and 172), if
more than one disk driv e fails at the same tim e 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
surviv e multiple disk driv e failures, depending on whic h 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 Vi ew, right-click the failed disk drive, then click
Remove fail ed drive.
