Solve Mirror Conflict

When a RAID set is created, then metadata written to the disk includes drive connection
information. If, after a disk failure, the replacement disk was previously part of a RAID set (or used
in another system), it may have conflicting metadata. If so, 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 the new metadata. To resolve this, from the main 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.
