EqualLogic PS 4100 with Flashing Drive
We have an PS 4100 with a failed drive. We have it configured to RAID6
I have a spare drive and was wondering if pull the failed drive out and replace it with the new drive, how much of an impact will it be on users VMs that are running?
Should we migrate VMs to local ESXi storage first ?
thanks

Ok,
Do you have a link to the latest firmware?
I will swap out the drive but may warn the users prior...
I will look at the guide.

I did not replace the drive yet, so no none is complaining. The users are in the middle of a high profile build and test effort.
I am guessing the FW has not been updated. So whatever FW came on the system back when it was new, is the version.
Disk are 300gb 10k.
