Ê If the HDD module to be removed is combined into a RAID array, please
proceed as follows:
In order to permanently remove an operational HDD module that is part of a
RAID array from the server, you first need to delete the array using
ServerView RAID Manager or BIOS Utility.
V CAUTION!
All data on all HDDs in the array will be lost when deleting the RAID
array. Be sure to back up your data before deleting a RAID array. For
more information, see the "ServerView Suite RAID Management"
user guide.

RAID level Procedure
RAID 0
V CAUTION!
RAID 0 provides no data redundancy.
In case of an HDD module is defect, all data
are lost!

RAID 5
Removing an HDD module from a RAID 1 or RAID 5
array will not result in data loss.
However, the removed drive needs to be replaced
immediately by an HDD module of the same or larger
