Solve Mirror Conflict

When a RAID set is created, metadata which includes drive connection information is written to the disk. If after a disk failure, the drive that failed was replaced by a disk that was previously part of a RAID set (or used in another system), it may have conflicting metadata. This will prohibit the RAID set from being either created or rebuilt. In order for the RAID set to function properly, this old metadata must be first overwritten with new metadata. To resolve this, from the main RAID BIOS window select Solve Mirror Conflict, then press Enter, the correct metadata, including the correct drive connection information, will be written to the replacement disk.

RAID BIOS during boot. The steps below will guide you in rebuilding a failed mirror set.
