Help with PERC H730 Raid Controller/Drive Failed
PowerEdge T430 with a PERC H730, 4 Drives in a RAID 6, we had what seems to be a drive failure on 2 drives, the first drive says online(Drive 0), drives 1 and 2 are reporting failed and the forth drive (drive 3) shows missing. When you go in to the perc H730 config on the server in the VD mgmt page it shows the drive is missing. In the foreign view tab it shows the forth drive as 00:01:03: Rebuild: 1.818 TB (Foreign). I guess the question is, is there a way to get this drive (Drive 3) back up or just skip it and go with a data recovery service?
