Multiple Failures in the Same Logical Drive

Except in RAID 6 and RAID 60 logical drives (see pages

171

and

172

), if

more than one disk drive fails at the same time 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

survive multiple disk drive failures, depending on which 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 View, right-click the failed disk drive, then click
Remove failed drive.
